Turns made in POWder snow. The first two boarders made the alternating and crossing turn pattern. The third boarder hopped in the middle of the patterns

Ah ok, the turns are just from them coming down, they've not just dug out something for the third boarder to then come and fuck it up

Two skiers or boarders try to make a verrry looong figure "8" shape. 1st person makes 1/2 and the second person tries to replicate the opposite side. It's hard to do as the turns will be different.

It reminds me of a kid making the greatest snow angel and someone else stomps all over it to spoil it.
