Element and Greg Noll event

28 January 2010

The Gallery

Element has partnered up with Greg Noll in the creation of the Travel Well Greg Noll Collection of skateboards, modeled after some of the revolutionary surfboard shapes Greg has created through surfing over nearly 5 decades.

What better way to celebrate the launching of such a prestigious collection than through a party?  The event was held Tuesday night at Jed Noll’s surf gallery in San Clemente, where hundreds of people gathered for poster signings, pictures, drinks, amazing music by iconic skateboarder Ray Barbee. The massive crowd was captivated by the limited edition run of 200 skateboards hand signed by Greg and Jed Noll.

Each board has unique character from the variety of wood (such as purple heart, Tiger Rosewood or mahogany) it was carved from-some coming in deep reds while others showcasing their zebra stripe grain of pearly creams and burnt browns.

While the Travel Well Collection as a whole will stick around, these limited edition boards can only be found at Jed’s gallery for now.  Enjoy some of the snapshots from the night and get a chance to head down to the gallery and take a look at these boards for yourself.
