Check out photos from the 2011 Element Make It Count Finals that took place in the beautiful Sequoias at Element YMCA Skate Camp! Click HERE to see all photos in the album.
On International Go Skateboarding Day, the winners of the MAKE IT COUNT contest series were treated to a sesh at The Berrics. Also in attendance were Chad Tim Tim, Darrell Stanton, Mark Appleyard, Nyjah Huston and Nick Garcia. The level of skateboarding that went down is mind-blowing, especially when you consider the schedule of the winners’ previous week. If they weren’t in a plane or van, they were skating a contest, shredding a park or hiking a mountain.
Congratulations and thanks to all of the winners. Extra special thanks and congratulations to Julian Christianson. His blend of ability and humility are an inspiration.
Congratulations Julian Christenson the overall winner of the 2011 MAKE IT COUNT intl contest series! Welcome to the family Julian! Photos and video coming soon!

The European Finals for the Element Make it Count Contest Series were held in Madrid, Spain on May 14th 2011. We had 16 contestants from all over Europe who were competing for an all expenses trip to California for the Global Finals.
We had Element riders Nyjah Huston, Mark Appleyard, Levi Brown, Nick Garcia, Evan Smith, Phil Zwijsen and Madars Apse to judge the contest and do a signing in Welcome Skate Shop, Madrid.
It was a really close call but the judges concluded that Artjom ‘Tim’ Prozorov was the overall winner!
