This is a type of shotgun competition. The shooter fires at clay-targets that are being thrown from two traps houses that are about 40 meters apart. The shooter moves around eight different shooting stations that are arranged in an arc so that the shots are taken at various angles. The 8th shooting station is in-between the two trap houses.
