Abstract: An apparatus is disclosed to support a portion of the weight of a recreational product while riding on a lift. The apparatus includes a first element attachable to a recreational product user, and a second element fixedly supported relative to the recreational product. The first element includes a tether that can be secured to a recreational product user's limb at the first end of the tether; and a coupling fitting that is attached at or near the second end of the tether. The second element is fixed on the recreational product and includes a platform and a hook supported by the platform. A portion of the platform and the coupling fitting are configured to be magnetically attracted to each other. The hook is configured to engage the coupling fitting. When the hook and coupling fitting are fully engaged the platform and coupling fitting are spaced apart from each other.
