Last saturday was the annual snowboard season kick off in Stockholm, Sweden, for�the 20 riders from Iceland, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Austria, Russia, US and Canada who gathered to battle at the FrontLine RailJam 2007.
The setup was similar to last year: a down flat down box and straight rail plus a miniramp.
Some riders who stood out were Hans �hlund, Fredu Sirvi�, Risto Ruokola, Eirikur Helgason, Daniel Ek, Nicky Wieveg and E-man. Judges awarded the best trick of the day to two riders based on two rails. Risto Ruokola nailed something like a switch backside tail spin 180 on the rail and 270 out and cashed 5000SEK for Best Trick. The king of the kink box was Hans �hlund. A 50-50 backside 270 boardslide combo landed him Best Trick as well and became 5000SEK(500EUR) richer.�The best overall Rider of the Day award went to Iceland's own king Eirikur Helgason who delivered technical combos and solid style all day long.
