It wasn't first chair at all but once I did get hit by a chair when I fell off (Canyon chair) when an idiot decided to move in to load the chair right behind me and I ended up sitting on top of him (because I was not aware he was there) and then sliding off. I got hit because they did not stop the chair fast enough. Luckily it only hit my helmet and I was OK but I had a few choice words for the idiot who caused this.

That stinks! Now we need a new thread, how many times were you already a foursome on a quad, and some doofus tries to make it a five-seater (I've seen it too many times, but not something I've kept track of) :-)

One year I was loading the Bear Quad and on the chair in front of me The lifty held the chair so long it caused the lady to fall off and the chair hit her right in the back hurting her pretty bad.

The following year same thing happens to me. Having remembered what happened the year prior just before it was my turn I immediately buried my head in the snow and the chair missed me. Super embarrassing, but the this was on the lifty for holding the char so long that it wasn't at such a huge angle that when I sat on it, I slide right off.

Yes! Come on people. Even this doesn't count. Then again, maybe one of these was first chair?

Regardless, the "lifty hold the chair too long, at too steep angle, etc." Is usually do to someone [skier or rider] slacking off and not getting to the line.

A textbook example of the guilty bastard getting the best chair load and everyone else getting slammed.
