Default using the "anchor" skilift

Hey all,
I've been checking the web to find any tips on how to use the "anchor"
skilift - where u have the anchor shaped thingie to pull u up - but all
I could find were tips on how to get off chairlifts. Now since many
resorts in my place don't have chairlifts, I'd like some tips on how to
use them anchors.
Just about any tip would be nice.
Thx
Ben

I think you're talking about a T-Bar lift. Punch it into Google, or
just go to

Most important tip: Don't try to sit on it.

Aaaah, thx. I didn't know what they're called in english. Over here we
call them "anchors" and that didn't give anything usefull on google.

Just put it between your legs (yeah, I know how it sounds...:-))
So one half of the T-bar (anchor) is hooked to the inner side of your thigh
(front leg).
Front leg is in the binding, all the weight is on it.. Rear leg is free, su
you can even walk with the board if you loose the balance.

That's all, it's not very complicated!?
