When people get told to "be safe", they seem to hear "follow the rules", which creates conflict. The PoleMaster makes safety easy and convenient...no new rules.
There is so much “noise” in the world with an announcement, direction, suggestion, demand, or rule to follow hitting you in the face every few seconds — when a person feels (perhaps naively) that there are no consequences to disobeying, they just don’t comply.
Not pulling down the safety bar on a ski lift is like that — you can’t force a rider to put it down, and they “don’t really need it”.
The trick getting people to do the right thing is not to tell them to do it, but to make them “want” to… the PoleMaster device, because of it’s huge convenience boost of giving a place to put your ski poles (or drink, or phone, or whatever) really encourages the use of the restraining bar.
No, thanks...
LESS THAN 50% of lift riders lower the safety (restraining) bar, even though there are signs, warnings, lift attendant reminders, wisdom, and common sense nagging for your attention to pull it down.
Brilliant...
Statistically, dropping your ski poles is not a matter of life and death, but...
Injuries are common in snow sports.Let's not make it worse by dropping obstacles on the piste (or, out of bounds) and then having to retrieve them.
Ski-PoleMaster is an Arizona-based company (weird to think of snow in the desert, right?) with a passion for improving life and business for everyone. Transparently and honestly, we do what we say we will.
Safety & Convenience don’t have to be in conflict with profit.
