Elijah Berle #2.

Five facts about Elijah:

1. He was sponsored by Foundation. He wasn't sure if he fit in there and was hanging out with Mike Mo Capaldi a lot. Mike helped him get on Chocolate.

2. He won the 2010 Tampa Am contest at the Skate Park of Tampa.

3. Elijah plays a little bit of electric guitar. He also likes working on cars and motorcycles.

4. He contributed some backing vocals on a Suicidal Tendencies song. He's friends with Jim Muir's son so that's how that connection came about. Jim's brother Mike is the frontman for the group, in case you somehow didn't know that.

5. Elijah lived in a skate house with Cory Kennedy. They had a mini ramp and a pool. He said he found all sorts of mold covered beers, Taco Bell, and Nike sneakers in Cory's room when he cleaned the place out before moving. There was even a dead rat in the ceiling.
