ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for loading skiers on a ski lift consisting of a plurality of rollers the rollers being parallel to each other and perpendicular to the ski lift at least during the portion of its length past the loading point. The rollers rotate, thereby accelerating a skier who is standing on the rollers to a speed the same or substantially the same as the speed of the ski lift. The skier is thereby able to sit down comfortably on the chair while standing on the rollers. A second apparatus may be disposed at an unloading point whereby the skier is moved away from the ski lift and is decelerated in order to safely transfer to the mow.
