Snowboarding since he was 7 years old, coming up through the World Rookie Tour and breaking out onto the World Snowboard Tour, Sven Thorgren is constantly killing it on the global snowboarding event scene. Dominating WST Slopestyle and Big Air events, Sven’s forté is obvious.
A regular finalist at many of the world’s Elite level Slopestyle events, Sven has also more than proven his worth on the global Big Air tour, taking out podium placements at the prestigious World Snowboard Tour Air+Style Beijing 2014, the Toyota Big Air and Freestyle.CH Big Air events.
Sven may have a penchant for park, but given the chance you’ll find him riding pow and loading up on booters in the backcountry.
Off-snow Sven is a skater who just so happens to snowboard. So, it’s safe to say that he spends much quality time rolling skate spots, surfing, traveling, and kicking it with family and friends.
What age did you start snowboarding and why?What does a normal day look like when you are not snowboarding?
I usually skate with my friends, work out and hang out in Stockholm or Monaco.
What snowboarders do you most look up to?
So many, but a few examples is Nicolas Müller, Mikkel Bang, Mark Mcmorris, Eero Ettala. But I think I find inspiration in almost every good rider out there.
What do you focus on most, slopestyle? Pipe? Big Air? and why?
I focus on slopestyle manly and big air kind of fit in to that
automatically. Trying to get better on snowboarding in general though.
What is your most memorable snowboarding experience?
I think one of them was a day in Riksgränsen with perfect conditions, riding around with sleds, fishing and got some good shoots.
How has World Snowboard Tour affected your snowboarding career?
World snowboard tour pretty much made my snowboard career to what it is now, starting with the Rookie fest contest and then doing good at European Open in Laax and so on.
How do you prepare for contests?
I like to ride the course as much as I can. I really wanna practice my run a lot before I feel really good.
What are your tips for training tricks?
Dont be afraid ;)
