Element Skateboards History
Johnny Schillereff was a pro skater who skated for a team called Underworld Element Skateboards. After years of following a wayward path he decided to turn his life around. He wanted to do something positive with his life. Around the same time he decided to change his life, Underworld Element Skateboards started having lots of financial problems and neither the management nor the team could get along. Eventually most of the riders left. Johnny then had a choice. He could try to fix Underworld or start something totally new. He chose a little bit of both. He took ownership of Underworld Element Skateboards and changed the name to Element Skateboards. He made several big changes to the team and the brand, and signed on several big name skaters to the team. In time Element Skateboards would become one of the biggest names in skateboarding.
