    Made my first visit to Keystone today, enjoyed it a lot. At the top of this chair I was surprised by how quickly and jerkily it turned out of the unloading area. A guy wiped out coming off the chair in front of me, and then sitting on the outside seat, I nearly got hooked by chair as it moved really quickly into the turn. I saw another person spill unloading a chair or two later. I was surprised to see that, seems like a real risk to throughput and not what you’re expecting from a famously family-friendly resort. Would shifting the unloading line/platform back away from the turn help relieve this issue?

      North Peak isn’t really a “family friendly” area as it’s mostly black runs with a few blues.

    Shifting the platform may help, but a lot of HSQ have jerky unloads. Now I am suprised that it turns that quick. That is something that needs to be fixed.

    This chair really zips along! Has a faster feel than the others somehow.
