T-bars

Pulls skiers uphill

T-bars are ski lifts consisting of an inverted T-shaped bar suspended from a moving cable, designed to pull two skiers uphill while they stand on their skis: We took the T-bar up to the intermediate slope.

The term also refers to T-shaped fasteners or supports in construction and hardware, or straps across the instep of certain shoes.
