Mikey "Its a marvel of the english language"
Two stories of origin:
A couple guys on a chair lift in Vermont making up words combining existing words, in this case "Sweet" and "Best".
And the other possible origin giving 'Swest' a new meaning...
A group of stoners bought the biggest rolling papers they could find, attached several together around a wooden table leg and filled it with greenery. The Joint was named 'Swest'
"swest"
it replaces words such as cool, sweet, nice, awesome, and a large doobie, joint, gagger, blunt, johnny etc...

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
