    YES!!!! That mentality as a parent these days is so rare. We all seem so concerned with safety, which is an important topic, but no one will ever make it out of this life alive or without scars. And kids should understand their own mortality as much as kids can without actual risk to their life. I applaud your parenting style.

    I was born in the mid-‘70s. Grew up in the ‘80s. I distinctly remember learning to ride my cousins 2 wheeler bike (no training wheels) at their house which was “on base” as their dad was Air Force. I fell into the same damn rose bush a dozen times. 😂 BUT… that 13th time…. I made it around the block. Kids definitely need to be put into situations where they have the opportunity to crash so they learn to get up. Well done to your son.

    Bar up in the Midwest. Bar down when out west. That's how we usually do it. Partly due to the length of time on the chairlift and most of the Midwest lifts aren't high speed detachables.

    I think the topic with the restraining bar is maybe just a think in the US. In Europe (Austria, Switzerland) you can barely see anyone, who has the bar not closed. I personally think, that the bar is a really good think and that you should Roman get used to a closed bar, so that he will also do it in the future.

    • @docomega7862
      @docomega7862 Рік тому

      I'm not from the US, so I could be wrong. But, watching these videos, I feel like many people in the US are self taught. While in france, most people went through ski / snowboarding school at least 1 or 2 years to get the basics of a proper technique. And at ski school, they always make you put the bar down. So it's just a habit at this point, you get in, get comfy and then put the bar down. Which could explain why it's not a topic here

    Been skiing and riding since 1982. Never fell off a chair lift (jumped off one or two) and don't know anyone who has. I have seen plenty of people forget to put the bar up, though. I use the bar to give my feet/legs a rest. Love the Roman vids. He'll grow up not remembering a time when he didn't snowboard. It will be a part of his life forever and is such a natural and wholesome activity. Good job, Dad. Taught my daughter (28) and my son (22) how to ski and ride when they were 3. Both still put in about 50 days a year.

    I normally put the bar down. However I also ride with a backpack. I'll lean forward and rest on the bar so I don't have to take my pack off or push my back into the lift. Have had a few times where I leaned forward because I was used to having a bar and didn't so that was scary. Been riding for 17 years. Just what I'm used to

    Keeping the bar up seems like an American thing. I have been Skiing for 33 years in Canada, always put the bar down and most people do as well. Some resorts enforce putting it down. With my young kids I like when there is a handle that can go between their legs. I don't think it really matters, but does seem like a worthwhile safety feature.

    When i first started skiing i used to put the bar down but once i got more confident and my ability blossomed, i found the bar to be more of a hindrance. If i was riding solo on a lift the bar usually stayed up, if i was with others who weren't as comfortable as me, i let them decide. My mother on the other hand wasn't a strong skier and neither was my sister so when we would go as a family, my mom would pester me whereas my dad was just impressed that i didn't care lol

    I get leg twitches from time to time so I like the bar for that, but I mainly use it so that if I'm trying to manipulate something like my phone or food and I drop it I don't accidentally lunge forward to try to recover it. I get your point about a bar without the leg divider thing being a bit of an illusion of safety that could be counterproductive, particularly for small kids. The style of chairlift seat you're in for that segment is also a lot more angled and deeper than some older chairs, particularly old doubles.

    In Germany and Austria you have to put the bar down. So that's probably why some people are saying something. It's quite weird to us not putting the bar down. But I agree you could still fall out with the bar down.
    Especially with that kind of bar in the video.
    We have different kind of bars and some especially for a bunch of kids between 3 and 6 years old. It makes it easier for us skiing instructors. Your doing a great job!!

    Not putting the bar down is like not wearing a helmet, why take the risk when there's a perfectly good piece of safety equipment designed to help keep you safe and out on the mountain. Remember, accidents are called accidents because no one saw them coming and that's where safety equipment can make the difference.

    If I wasn't trying to pay for my own kids college fund, I'd buy two of those stickers. My first year skiing AND trying to teach my kids, and you crush it! Keep it up man!

    Man Roman is too cute bro. I’ve been dying to get my boys out but they grow like weeds so it’s a fortune on gear outside of normal rentals. On the bar subject, I make the people riding with me put it down 😂😂😂. I use it to lean and rest on. Has nothing to do with keeping me safe, I just get winded at my age quickly lol

    bar down is def the way to go for kids like 13 and under maybe 12 because they are life-saving, I heard my dad say a kid fell off the chair lift without the bar down luckily some high schoolers saved him with some of the net fencing which is crazy but def on the bar down side of things :)

    You should 100% put the bar down, if the chairlift stops abruptly people (and less experienced riders in particular) can slide off without anything to hold on to. And even though you feel like you don't need it, you're setting an example for the people who DO need it. You probably don't need a helmet while snowboarding with your kid either, but you still use it.

    I only ski in Europe and every chair lift i have ever been on the bar goes down and is used, some are even automatic.
