We admire Terjes style and love to shred together. Helipro and Terje were many times together in the mountains of Kamchatka, Canada and in Switzerland for Helipro season opening. When Terje comes to Kamchatka, he doesn’t miss the opportunity to surf. Snow Valley Lodge is always happy to welcome him in Kamchatka.
