Bar up or bar down?

I'm a bar down guy, always.

I tend to be a bar up person when there is a bar. Most lifts in Mi. don't have bars, but all new lifts have them now, if they have the foot rest I use them. Now when I was back in NY I used the bar at al times, not sure why except the lifts are much longer.

Bar down. But my pet peeve are bar slammers.

Bar down, I tend to put my hand on the bar and ask people if they are ready that way I can't get slammed.

AFAIK, it's the law in NYS also. Just got back from a 6 week tour of Utah and Colorado. Sometimes didn't use the bar, but most times did-depends on the chair and it's height. Some of the older fixed grip doubles and triples out there don't have them.

The triple at Lab’s safety bar weighs a lot more than the ones at Song.
It’s like pumping iron at Lab. EZ-peazy at Song.
The safety bar always goes comes down if I’m on it.

Bar down since the 70's . I was on a significant rollback that snapping to a stop and swung the chair like a pendulum . Scarred me to the point I get chills thinking about it.

Was the rollback on the Muller double at Jiminy Peak?

I never even thought about a roll back and the snap. Scary.

I only had one grumpy rando complain that I preferred the bar down.

Bar down always.
