DAVE NOLAN GETS COVER OF CONCRETE! |

|
| Congrats to Element Canada's Dave Nolan who graces the cover of the new Concrete Mag, Photo Issue. It's shot by Jay Bridges who recounts “This place is known as the Scuttle Holes, north of Belleville, Ontario. It’s a giant hole in the ground that leads to a cave, which leads to the Moira River. It’s kinda scary ‘cause if you to walk down the trail at night you might fall into the hole and die. Dave Nolan almost fell into it trying that 360 flip because the plywood runway was super sketchy and set on a downhill. There was also a bat in the cave when I got there to set-up, but I threw a rock and it bounced.” |

| After appearing in two number one movies in 2009, Paul Blart: Mall Cop and The Hangover, Mike V is once again going Hollywood as he scored a role in the remake of the 80's blockbuster "Red Dawn." Mike plays an arms dealer in the film and also evades explosions and gun fire while doing stunt work as a Russian Soldier in the film due out a year from now in November of 2010. He had to cut off his long hair and beard for the role, which was "time to hit the reset button anyway, the movie role just gave me a good excuse to get a haircut." See Mike's fresh cut over at Shred Or Die, his 4 part Free Lunch is now playing. |

Check out the amazing mural Element Eden Advocate Lisa Solberg painted this past Saturday, on the wall of The River in Pacific Beach, CA. Not only was she unfazed by the chilly temperatures, spectators, and loud music being played, she actually seemed to be quite in her element (no pun intended)! A HUGE thank you to Lisa, Lisa Delelias, The River, DJs Johannes and Flow, as well as Elemental Awareness staff Yvette and Todd for bringing it! Thanks also to all the people who stopped by to join the BBQ and spin the Wheel Of Prizes!
