Can you tone down the color and the font a little? I might stop looking at your posts!

Considering the % of the market that CWA has, is there a real alternative manufacturer for resort owners? Or do the lift manufacturers pretty much only work with CWA....

L-P would surely prefer to build it's Gondolas with Sigma cabins, as this company belongs to Poma, instead of CWAs as this company is part of the Doppelmayr Group. But recently as far as I know only the Mall Pulse at Snowmass got those gondolas. It should be the resorts who insist on CWA Omega cabins. In Europe by the way resorts can and do choose under 4 different manufacturers (CWA, Gangloff, Sigma, and Carvatech) but of course CWAs are most popular.

Does anyone have a picture of a Gangloff cabin or other manufactuers than CWA and Sigma? I would like to see some!

Gangloff manufacturers the cabriolet cabins that are at The Canyons, Tremblant and Mountain Creek.

I really like those cabins on the White Face gondola! Very cool-looking.

I like those too. Although my favorites are the X cabins I think. They are on the Bridger Gondola, and the two at Snowbasin. Vail's Eagle Bahn Gondola has the "12" person type of those.

I don't like the ones on the Vail gondola because they don't resist wind well.

Do you have any pictures of the DV Gangloff cabins closer to the ground ? How well do they travel along the lift line ? I heard they have some rollers on the bottom is that true ?

Somewhat off topic, but I was looking at Mad River Glen's single chair replacement info, and it will cost them $910 for each single chair. Anyone know how much one new double, triple, or quad would cost?
