LEXICON: t-bar

Lexicon: t-bar
t-bar - / ˈti: bɑː / - noun
Method of mechanical uplift where the rider is dragged or pulled uphill. T-bars and button lifts hark back to a bygone era before snowboards when skis were very long, very thin and very straight. Only a few old schoolers mourn their passing into history but drag lifts have their place. As a FreeRider you're going to want to get up there in all weathers and it's a fairly safe bet the drag lift will still be turning long after the chairlifts, gondolas and cable cars have all shut due to high winds.

\\ Riding the t-bar hands free - nice!
