About the Golf Shot Around the World Mission The Golf Shot Around the World, the longest drive in history, commemorated the 35th anniversary of the first golf short in space, by Astronaut Alan J. Shepard. On the eve of Thanksgiving just over one year ago, November 22, 2006, Russian Cosmonaut Mikhail Tyurin, using a specially designed gold-plated Element 21 Scandium Eagle One golf club, successfully hit a gold-plated golf ball into earth orbit from the International Space Station (ISS), 220 miles above the earth as an estimated 300 million plus people watched. Still in orbit and travelling at 6 miles per second, the ball has logged over 195 million miles and is expected to travel over a billion miles. The flight of the ball can be tracked at www.issgolf.com. The Element 21 website is www.e21golf.com. The Shot also served to highlight the many benefits of using Scandium Alloys in golf clubs to achieve greater distance, accuracy and consistency than offered by any other materials currently in use. The Scandium Alloy was originally developed by scientists for advanced aeronautics and space applications which includes the International Space Station. About The Element 21 Scandium Shaft Technology Element 21's Scandium Alloy shafts are manufactured using a proprietary 25-step production process to create a seamless, extruded shaft. Variable wall thickness and the alloy's high tensile strength results in a vibration dampening system called ShockBlok(TM) with 270% better shock attenuation than steel shafts that protects golfers' bodies, bones and joints. Each Element 21 shaft is made from a single piece of Scandium Alloy resulting in unmatched consistency from club to club as well as unprecedented accuracy and distance and an industry-leading torque of as low as 1.4 degrees. About Element 21 Golf Company Element 21 Golf Company develops and markets award-winning golf and fishing products made from the Company's next-generation, proprietary Scandium Alloys. Element 21's high performance products deliver dramatic improvements in distance, consistency, accuracy and feel over the most popular products in the US$5.5 billion golf and the US$48 billion international fishing markets. Originally developed for advanced aeronautics in jet fighters including the MiG, Element 21's patented Scandium Alloys provides the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any material currently used in sports -- 25% improvement over Titanium, 40% improvement over Graphite/Epoxy, 52% improvement over Aluminum, 70% improvement over Steel. They also provide unique vibration dampening properties resulting in products with unprecedented feel over competing materials. Element 21 Golf Company has recently expanded its product line to include fishing equipment that has quickly secured international recognition by winning several top honours at the 2007 ICAST, the world's largest sports fishing trade show.
