If you keep going over the exact same path many disks will start to leave a ridge. The back gangs will throw dirt to the center of the disk leaving it high while removing the dirt from the outside edges of the rear gang of the disk. So, to help prevent this ridging if you have to keep going back and forth in the same direction, move over 1/2 a disk width. Now you are pulling in dirt from the two ridges left in the previous passes while filling the depression. This ridging really occurs when you have to disk along a fence. Disk along the fence, turn around and over lap the disk 1/2 of the prior swath. Another thing that helps to have the disk leveled properly. A drag can help some as well as not traveling too fast.
