    It‘s mindblowing to me how much more modern the lift system over here in Austria is - and lift prices are like half. The chairlifts in this video I‘ve seen last time when I was a kid - like 30 years ago! ;-D

    Loved this video. I’ve been planning a trip to Whistler and just watching vids and seeing the lines, I was thinking of doing Fitzsimmons, Garbanzo to Emerald and your vid just confirmed it as everyone said the Gondola was time consuming lining up. Also, have never done a T-bar run so will try that now after seeing the conditions for Showcase. Thanks for a really good informative video of the mountains. Thanks from the Gingerman.

    the new Big Red is my favourite. Love the views and it is out of the wind. Emerald gets cold when there was winds off the peak.

    I’ve never skied WB (but I’ve visited it many times t rough google maps😂), and am glad that symphony got the attention. It seems like a quiet and underrated area of the mountain that whistler Blackcomb CZcamsrs (there are a few) fail to showcase (no pun intended)

      Symphony is one of my favorites for sure. I wish I took more laps on it; I wanted to explore as much as possible since I only had a few skiing days during that trip.

    Who said Catskinner was a beginner lift in the first place? Always a park lift. Realignment of the lift meant it served more terrain, and now serves family terrain, a terrain park, and even some black diamonds. It's much better now. It's even my new profile picture!

    • @TwinSkiingLiftsRides

      I thought it was a beginner lift based on what Skier 72 said about it, but it doesn’t feel like one. I took a few laps on that lift during my trip.

    What an awesome video! Great job. I'm thinking about doing some lift rankings myself! Maybe Aspen or somewhere in Vermont... I actually filmed a video of me breaking down the Aspen Mountain trail map and doing a lift ranking but then realized in the end that the whole video was vertical and not horizontal. OOPS. what do you think? Still post it or no?! Keep up the great content!

    I have to disagree that Fitz-Garbo-Emerald is faster than taking the village gondi 90% of the time. If the line is huge then yeah I can see that, but once you're on it's a 20 min direct shot.

    • @TwinSkiingLiftsRides
      @TwinSkiingLiftsRides  Před rokem +2

      The gondola may seem faster, but I prefer Fitz-Garbo-Emerald solely because I don’t have to take off my skis. WVG regularly slows and stops, making the WVG ride at least half an hour. For Fitz-Garbo-Emerald, you’re skiing for at least one of those legs, which is way more fun than waiting in line for the gondola.

      @@TwinSkiingLiftsRides I do get the point of not having to take off equipment. The first year that they had the new cabins that would run it at 1100 fpm as long as it wasn't windy. At that speed it wasn't too bad. 850 would be arduous. I guess Vail Resorts is trying to lower their energy bill... Anyway these rankings are super fun, I hope you guys make more!

      @@Sterlingclub24 The Village Cabriolet isn’t really a real estate lift - it’s a connector between the parking lot and the base village. Most real estate lifts are generally fixed-grip chairlifts, like Big Sky.
