A drag lift. An overhead tow-line, usually around 4 meters above skiers and riders. It is known as a T-bar lift, with a T shaped bit which two skiers share by resting their bottom on the bar. It is known as a button or platter lift where the passengers place a circular disk in between their legs. More difficult and uncomfortable for snowboarders. drag_lift would also cover more simple looped rope drag lifts, or loops of wire with handles to grab.
