I'm not too sure if you guys even realize this, but the line Terje rode from that first clip is not even in the second clip above. The second clip above does at one point show Terje standing at the top of the line leading into the chute, but never show's him actually riding it. The riding footage is of Travis, Shawn and terje shredding other terrain.
In the first clip the heli footage makes the top portion leading into the chute look more mellow than it is. The shots taken from the perspective of Nick Perata and Shawn Farmer watching Terje ride it, shows how steep it really is. So unless terje was lying down while making those turns at the top leading into the chute, he was riding a 60 degree pitch with his easily arms touching the slope as he was standing up and making his turns.
