Forget you are on skis and forget that the chair is moving. Just sit down and stand up as if it was at your dining room table. Someone is sliding the chair under you so put your hand down to your side, so you feel the chair coming and then sit. At the top, when the snow slopes down, just get up. If you think about the fear of sliding, you won't do what you need to do.
Nice! A very relatable analogy! Thanks for sharing.
Beware not all ski gates have doors that can open and close at some ski resorts For example I went to a ski resort called Liberty Mountain Resort. They might not have gates that can open and close instead they have a person to help skiers and snowboarders get on the chair lifts. Once they let you know that its your turn to get the chair lift move up and let the first chair lift past because there might other skiers and snowboarders before you and this is also for safety. Some ski resorts made some of those special reasons. Some skiers and snowboards have a physical or intellectual disabilities or even both.
@@elizabethrichter-atkinson1787 Correct. It is your turn to move to the loading location when the chair passes you for the people ahead of you. Don't hesitate or wait until the chair picks up the people ahead of you. You go the moment their chair goes by you.
i'm going to ski school today and i'm really nervous, especially about this aspect of skiing. But this video helped alot thank you:)
Thank you! I was so scared getting on at Snowmass
I used to be great at skiing but because of COVID I wasn’t able to go. This helped me remember what to do. Thank you! 😊
Glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Hopefully, COVID won't stop any future trips. See you on the slopes some time!
If your great at skiing, then you will know how to get on and off a damn skilift
Thx this video helped my daughter demystify the concept about chair lifts
I wish we had videos like this when I was RElearning how to ski in the early 90s. I had learned in Germany on a slope where they had no chairlifts, just rope tows and T bars, and when I got on my first chairlift in the States, I thought it would be easy. I got up and fell right over. Talk about getting dirty looks! It wasn't until I took a beginner's lesson that I could do it properly. I recommend to any new skier that you take lessons from Square One. It's worth the investment.
I’m going skiing today and this really helped me get off the lift
Hi Miss Lavender, we're so pleased it was helpful! Have a great holiday!
This was useful because I'm going skiing tomorrow thanks
We hope you have a great time on the slopes! Thanks for commenting!
I’ve been stuck in the south my entire life. Unable to ever see snow again. I hope one day I will be able to experience this
Hi Sea Dawn, yes you should definitely travel to the snow when you can! It's such a fun, magical experience. Well worth a visit!
I finally left and went back north. Don't settle for southern mountains. It's icy and bad quality snow. If its all you got then go for it but dont be discouraged Totally different experience.
Your the best
This was very helpful
Hi Blink, glad you liked it! Have you got a trip booked?
I know everything and im good at skiing just I look stupid getting off the lift so
chair lifts have a safety bar now? Amazing the development of technology since I last skied, which was the year of the moon landing.
Hi there, this comment made us laugh! Yes most chairlifts now have a safety bar (In Europe anyway) and often they lock in so you physically can't lift them up until the top! You'll be amazed by the technology nowadays! Maybe it's time to get back out there?
@@Skinewgen I live in Kansas now. The only place I’d have to ski down is a speed bump. As a matter of fact, back in the 80’s a construction company made a large pile of dirt while digging something up. The city decided to keep it, make it a bit bigger & use it as a park for kids to sled down.
@@catrandy7957 Haha brilliant! Sounds like fun!
Why do you have to tilt your skis upwards before you get off? I’m
So nervous about a chair lift this has helped.
Just to ensure that the tips of the skis don't get caught on anything as you approach the but where to get off
Turn up the music and move him even further away from the microphone. That would improve this video even more.
Hi Emily, we're sorry the sound on this video isn't up to our normal standard. We hope you could still take something away and if you're looking for any more ski tips, take a look at our instagram page @skinewgen.
@@Skinewgen Thank you!
Nista nisam razumela aliskijaska oprema zaodrasle za decu divno savršeni materijali krajevi dizajn ove postelje modeli sve je vrh odrađeno.
Zdravo, bojim se da ne govorimo bosanski vrlo dobro. Možeš li pojasniti svoj komentar?
What’s with the background music? It’s hard to hear the guy
Hi Sara, sorry you found it hard to hear Pete talking. Next time we'll make sure his mic is closer to his mouth and the background music is quieter. If you want to watch the video again, make sure your volume is high to give you the best chance. Sorry for the inconvenience; hopefully, you can still take away something helpful from this video.
The hardest is when the line is downhill from the gate. It's. A terrible design for beginners who don't have control and falling before you even get on starts the day off roughly.
It gets hard when it’s a 6 person chairlift! Haha
