Why have they marked the snow with that blue dye?
It was on the downhill course and is now on the snowboarding course.
Health and safety gone mad?

It looks awful
Apparently it is to create better definition of the course for the competitors as they can't see all the humps and bumps properly in the foggy and dull conditions.
Well that's what the bloke on the telly said!
IMHO I actually think it's better, as a viewer.
Gives the course more definition, plus you can appreciate the depth and levels of some of the sweeping curves.
lol its probably the only health and safety measure I agree with.
The snow without the blue is so undefined and could be anysort of shape, It really makes it clear the shape, and bumps of the course.
