Regarding the “adaptive chairlift prototype” article (Pique, June 14), it’s inspiring to see the ongoing advancements to improve the adaptive sport experience. 

Like the Rupert Roller, invented by Whistler’s own Rupert Storer and Kyle Lawson, which allows adaptive skiers to load gondolas independently, without stopping the lift, this new chairlift for the bike park is a great addition to our community.
