Operation

MAGNESTICK® : 2 components

A permanant magnet fixed to the seat is activated for the whole ride up including when the child gets on. (All the seats can be equipped if necessary).

A light (200g) back protector worn by the child includes a metallic plate. Important : the child carries no magnet !

On arrival at the top, the magnet is automatically deactivated when the child gets off. The child can then get up from the seat normally. See the unloading video.

The risk of a child falling off before getting to the top is prevented as the magnet is only deactivated when the child puts their skis on the snow (even if someone lifts the restraining bar well before arrival).

Children wear this protection throughout the day's skiing (not only when taking the chairlift).

On their way down, this CE-approved back protector protects their backs if they fall or collide with someone else.

This vest comes in a bright colour so that children can be seen on the slopes and to avoid collisions with other slope users.


MAGNESTICK® : safety on the ride up

As soon as the metallic plate in the back protector comes into contact with the magnet on the chairlift, the child is ‘attached’ to the seat. The aim is to protect children at each stage of the chairlift transport process!

STAGE 1 -Getting on: As soon as the child is sat with their back against the back of the seat, the system prevents any risk of sliding off even if the person accompanying does not immediately lower the restraining bar.

STAGE 2 - The ride up: The child can still move about freely but is ‘attached’ to the seat during the whole ride up. The system avoids any risk of sliding under the restraining bar.

STAGE 3 - Getting of: Even if the restraining bar is lifted before arrival, the child remains safely ‘attached to the seat' until their skis touch the snow.


MAGNESTICK®: safety on the way down

The vest worn by the child becomes a back protector that is CE-approved. It protects the child’s back if they fall or collide with someone else.
