Why is it that some lifts only allow two people in it when it is a triple chair. For example during the summer only two can ride on Little Pico Triple(LPT)

yea because it is hard to get speed off of a chairlift without being wacked in the head. I got a huge lump from the triple at plattlekill in the summer.

I did not see any of these lifts while I was in Grindelwald, it was the summer but I only saw the two Gondolas, the Manna something and the Grindlewald first. What is the make of the Manna something gondola?
