Season 4's Ski Lift
The Ski Lift is an obstacle, used as the second round in Season 4's Winter Wipeout, replacing both the Overdrive and the Double Cross from the previous season.
It is a similar obstacle to the Sweeper (which was used as the second round in Seasons 1 and 2, being interchanged with King of the Mountain).
The twelve contestants start together on floating platforms 10 feet above the icy water as they move in a circular motion. They must hold onto the handlebars and lift themselves over the sweeper arms to avoid being knocked into the icy water. If it wasn’t difficult enough, the sweeper arms will rise higher and higher. Additionally, a snow machine is placed before the first sweeper arm. The last six contestants standing move on to the next round, and the last person standing wins a $1,000 bonus.
It was replaced by the Scareousel when the season moved on to Spring Wipeout.
