Fastest transfer from Vancouver Airport (YVR) to Whistler

I know that I can drive from YVR to Whistler in a rental car in about 2 hours (have done it many times before).

This time round, I'd like to take a shuttle. I noticed that there are shuttle services online, but they all seem to make a stop in Vancouver city before heading out to Whistler. As a result, the shuttles seem to take 3 hours instead of 2.

Is there a direct, fast YVR->Whistler shuttle service available?
