Triggered the slide when I fell on a section of the slope that was a bit steeper than the rest (short rollover section) midslope. Slid about 200' on a raft of new snow. Ran slowly, so no turbulance so just stayed on top as it slid. Did not run to the bottom of the hill. Guessing the slope was about 30 degrees but the slide started in a steeper section (maybe 34).
