DIYK STRT JAM Stockholm Recap

Photos + Words: Joseph Roby

Is there something better than snowboarding, hard bails, and fire? The only correct answer is all of the above, together, for a weekend in the Swedish capital. DIYX STRT Jam was back at it again this year, this time in beautiful Stockholm. Based on how late I am to publish this recap, I’d say it has been a hard one to recover from.

From the Method 30-Year celebration, to playing basketball in the landing of the spot, or to watching snowboard movies in a Lay-Z-Boy cinema, I’d say our thirst for good times was fully quenched, at least for now. Here’s how I experienced the mayhem. Overall feels? This event is still your friendly reminder that the snowboard community does it like no others.

Supported by Monster Energy, Vans, Bataleon, Oakley, Skullcandy and Method Mag.

I would strongly recommend getting all your homies together and sharing a limo ride. Sparrow Knox, Mr Skin and Halldor Helgason getting from the airport to the venue in a limo. 

Canadians are in town. Seb Judge, Kody Yarosloski and Truth Smith.

Multi use hoop. Kinda disrespectful to the game, not gunna lie.

Gian Sutter giving his respect back to the spot.

Better looking trick of the day award if you ask me. Gian Sutter same same but different.

Len Jorgensen Dad of the year kinda moment.

Couple of GOATs. Henna Ikola, Maria Thomsen, Ylfa Runarsdottir.

Not gonna lie, I photoshopped 10 photographers/filmers outta those stairs. Now all we see is Kas Lemmens, and I’m not even mad about it.

Birthday boy got the cake. Len Jorgensen.

Darcy Sharpe embracing the DIYX mentality.

Sir Jed Anderson graced us with a Front Blunt.

“I’m in Scandinavia” kinda vibes.

You haven’t been to STRT Jam if you haven’t seen anything related to fire and danger.
