How does a ski chairlift slow down for the people getting on/off, but the rest of the chairs in the middle of the ride up don’t feel it?
In:
I have experience operating the type that aren’t detachable. When getting on the chairlift there is an attendant who stand in the center of where the chair comes around. As the skiers come up the attendant grabs on the side of the chair and pulls back. At the same time they sit down and it’s all a smooth transition, or should be. When you exit the chair comes up/down towards a ramp of snow. You stand up as the speed of the chair along with slope of the ramp guides you down.
Yes, people do fall down getting both on and off, and yeah it’s funny sometimes
