Bridger Bowl Red Riblet Chairlifts

[@PorterTheFanCollector]

0:22 that appears to be Pierre's Knob before 1980 since I see the long scary stretch

[@Crazy_Alex_7667]

0:55 that’s zooming for a fixed grip

[@mpodolsky11]

not too many skiers wearing helmets back then...

[@thefox4944]

Wow thats old

[@PorterTheFanCollector]

At 2:21 why were the chairs damaged?

[@sooperdoopercooper2939]

It looks like there getting blown around in high wind, but I'm not sure

[@PorterTheFanCollector]

@@sooperdoopercooper2939 I guess so. It did look like they went sideways and all around the place with seats getting blown out.

[@BridgerBowlSkiArea]

The song is titled "Red Riblet" and was made by a Bozeman band Bozambique.

Most Riblet chairs Ive ridden are green.

[@tenderpawsm473]

Does this lift have a safety bar??

[@sooperdoopercooper2939]

nope

[@tenderpawsm473]

@@sooperdoopercooper2939 This looks a little dangerous. Someone could fall off. It must be a very old lift.

[@Supernova778]

@@tenderpawsm473 a lot of chairs of this vintage still are in use, only dangerous if you’re dumb

[@loreleihassel1776]

Most riblet chairs dont

[@Martin24720]

no but most of the americans dont care because when there even is a safety bar there is an 80% chance that the american skier or snowboarder will not put it down

[@teddysliftworld]

You make a video about these great Riblets then you replace them! Thumbs down.

[@jtnaehring9670]

Agreed. Your KZbin channel is the best love your vids. (:

[@tenderpawsm473]

This lift didn't look too safe. There was no safety bar and that pole in the middle could whack skiers when loading. (I've had it happen). Some of these older lifts were not well designed.

[@RaidifyLifts]

Gullom M I bet u don’t know how to load them and if u ire the saftey bar u are a chicken. I never use the bar even on the newest chairlifts out there

[@andythompson3528]

Many of those lifts were installed in the 1960s and 1970s. Old age, low uphill capacity, and no safety bar is why they were replaced.

[@tenderpawsm473]

@raidifylifts3309 Umm, I've been skiing for 30 years, but you spell like a first grader. Most places require the bar to be lowered. It doesn't make a difference, though, because I heard this lift was replaced. It was probably also extremely slow.
