Irvine, CA – September 29, 2006:

Element Skateboards is pleased to announce the addition of four new team riders to its roster of world class skateboarders. New Pro Chad Tim Tim and new Ams Mike Barker, Jimmy Lannon, and Levi Brown have joined the Element family.

Chad Tim Tim joins Element hot off what many are claiming as the best part of Transworld SKATEboarding’s latest film, “A Time To Shine”. Chad’s first Element board is shipping immediately with a full range in development for Summer 07.

Mike Barker, Jimmy Lannon, and Levi Brown all join the Element Skateboards AM team. Mike Barker resides in Simi Valley and on any given day can be found skating the schoolyards of LA.

Jimmy Lannon, a Sarasota, FL resident who recently released new footage in Westside Skate Shop’s The Good Life and Elementality Vol Two will be repping Element in the Sunshine State.

Levi Brown, a long time flow team member for Element, counselor at Element YMCA Skate Camp, and Elemental Awareness member just landed the cover of Skateboarder Magazine and a spot as an Element AM.

New ads, images, and video footage of all four of Element Skateboards newest team members is now online and in all the latest magazines.

About Element Skateboards: In 1992 the Element seed was planted. Our goal was simple, to be the best we could be, in the most honest and ethical way possible. We joined together to elevate what we all truly believe in. Today, we continue to create the art, direction and message on a constant path to bring progress to skateboarding. We are more than a business; we are a family, all on the same journey for the growth with-in ourselves, Element and all that surrounds us.
