We argue that the energy and momentum deposition from hard partons into quark-gluon plasma induces an important contribution to the final state hadron anisotropies. We also advocate a novel method of Event Shape Sorting which allows one to analyse the azimuthal anisotropies of the fireball dynamics in more detail. The application of the method in femtoscopy is demonstrated.
