The Ski-Z Pass

Finally snow has come. You and your buddies wake up bright and early to catch the first tracks and mark up the mountain. But there’s only one thing stopping you! And that’s the thirty-minute chairlift line to get up to the top of the mountain. Ski-Z Pass is the way to resolve this dilemma. Instead of waiting for a staff member to scan each and every lift ticket, there can be a Ski-Z overpass at each of the main chairlifts and gondolas.

Instead of buying a lift ticket, each skier would pay to receive an adjustable armband with a flexible card that you can slip into it. The card would have a similar concept as an E-Z pass that cars use to pay highway tolls. Skiers would still line up the same way to get onto the ski lift, however when they ski under the overpass the ski staff would simply check to make sure there ticket scans a green light.

Say BYE-BYE to standing in long chairlift lines with wind blowing snow into your face. It’s like being stuck in a traffic jam with no heat in the winter. Skiers will be able to enjoy twice as many runs throughout their day. In addition, less staff will be needed to patrol whether or not the skier paid for a lift ticket. Ski-Z Pass is the future of lineless mountains.
