I would just venture the point that Legolas isn't just 'an elf', he is a Prince of Mirkwood, so in effect a 'hero' type of figure in the world of Middle Earth. As such, it seems perfectly reasonable that he would have greater 'powers' than even a common or garden elf.

Having said that, the shield surfing incident was just dumb.
