In 1998, after competing in the Vans Triple Crown of Snowboarding and ESPN’s Winter X Games, Olson took time out of his busy schedule to parley his snowboarding success into a successful career in Hollywood. Within eighteen months, Olson surrounded himself with the best agents and managers in the business including Kazarian Spencer & Associates, The Morgan Agency, Vice President of the International Conferences of Mangers George F. Weston Jr., and David Van Mauren of ABC Productions.
Through his own hard work and the help of a great support system, Olson beat out other Hollywood hopefuls to be cast in several international commercials, television shows, movies, and ad campaigns. Everything from potato chips and video games, to long distance phone services had Olson’s name on it as well as standing in for some of Hollywood's top stars when the going gets tough and they need someone to take the fall or take a hard crash. Olson has worked for such company’s as Pringles, AT&T, Disney and Imagine Media. You can catch Elliott Olson in his first movie premier Shredder, which will be released in the Fall of 2003.
