In bounds skiing, so we let our guard down and weren't really thinking about avalanche danger. Dropped into a line and on the first turn the wind loaded slab triggered all around skier. Skier was knocked off their feet and carried 30 feet down slope. Arms where free and they where able to push off and avoid obstacles, no injuries sustained.
