Possibly the results of a White Pine Weevil attack (they love Norway Spruce) or snow damage to the leader?

Had to be very fresh growth not to break and it should show broken leaders on other trees the same age stand  this is only one I see with leader damage

Yeah, most likely happened when that was top of the tree . 1/2 broke off(hinge cut) due to snow and or ice and the new growth continued up and around.

Still surprised that a partial snap occurred, and had chance to regrow, any pine or spruce I see partial cut usually dies..

Yes, it is pretty unusual.  It's interesting , somewhere in my travels this year while hunting I saw something close to identical only about 10' above the ground . For the life of me I cannot remember where, so I can't go back and take a pic.lol
