We're Elements.
The story
We're a family of four who'd rather be outside than anywhere else. Surfing, skiing, biking, climbing — between us we've tried most of it and we're not stopping any time soon. Elements is what happens when you put that energy into one place.
We started this because we got tired of gear reviews written by people who'd used something for a weekend, and adventure content that felt more like an advert than a story. We wanted something honest. So we built it.
Everything on this site comes from actual experience. If we review a pair of skis, we've skied on them for weeks. If we write about a trip, we've been there. No press trips, no sponsorship deals, no affiliate links influencing our opinions. Just us, doing the things we love and writing about them.
The team
Adrian
The one who plans the trips and somehow always finds the best restaurant.
Ruairidh
Will surf anything. Once surfed a river.
Lawrie
Bikes, broken chains, and an unreasonable amount of mud.
Euan
The skier. Also the one who built this website.
What we do
Review gear
We buy it, use it, break it, then tell you about it. No freebies, no bias.
Film adventures
If we're going somewhere good, the camera's coming. Trip reports, videos, and the stories behind them.
Share the love
That's it really. We just love being outside and want to share it with people who feel the same.
