flat light makes seeing the white landing hard. its to add contrast

They're just pine needles... It helps you see. We do it here when the lights flat too.

paint runs and soaks into the snow, so new snow falls right on top of it, and it ices up the landings because it raises the water content in the snow. Pine needles dont hurt any more to fall on them, and it doesnt do shit to your skis.

Insert shameless plug here...

don't worry, you could just ski through some poop to stink them up again.
