Frost elf Hiihtäjä
“There’s a certain rhythm to skiing, similar to the swell of the waves, or the wind, or the rain. And once I get moving, it becomes really hard to stop. And when I stop, it doesn’t take long for me to get moving again. I think that’s the greatest sense of freedom there is”, said Hiihtäjä (Skier) and before the other Elf even had the chance to open its mouth, Hiihtäjä had become just a small white dot among the pines.
Hiihtäjä frost elf is made of wooden beads and wears a gray cap made of felt. The frost elf holds a pair of ski poles in its hands and wears a light scarf around its neck.
