Element Skateboards (orginally called Underworld Element Skateboards) is a skateboard manufacturer and surfwear retailer based in Irvine, California. It is a subsidiary of Billabong International.

The company was founded in 1992 by Johnny Schilleriff as a collaboration called Underworld Element Skateboards. The struggling company was later absorbed by Schilleriff and the "Underworld" portion of the name dropped to reflect a more positive outlook and philosophy. The company is a major sponsor of Vanessa Torres and Lincoln Ueda.

The current company is active in eco-friendly endeavors and community causes and attempts to raise awareness of environmental causes through its "Power to the Planet" initiative.

Element Skateboards has been called the "world's leading skateboard company" by the New York Daily News.

Company stores are located in New York City, Honolulu and Sydney.
