LATITUDE CLIMBING AND FITNESS CENTER - BOULDERING ORIENTATION

·        I certify that I will watch the Orientation video, confirm that I watched it to a staff member, and ask any questions that I may have prior to participating in Latitude Climbing and Fitness activities. If the participant is a minor, and this agreement is signed by a parent or legal guardian, I as the parent or legal guardian understand that it is my responsibility to review the video and orientation materials and provide the information therein to my child.

·        Bouldering (un-roped climbing) is permitted at Latitude Climbing and Fitness in designated bouldering areas.

·        Bouldering involves increased risks because YOU WILL FALL, and all falls are ground falls which could result in injury or death. Padded floors and crash pads (where present) mitigate risks, but do not and cannot guarantee prevention of injury or death. Improper pad placement or improper pad use can also cause injury or death. Many injuries occur when you fall near or at the top of the wall and / or when you miss the crash pad or hit an edge of a crash pad.

·        To reduce your risk of injury: 

·        o   Down climb when possible instead of jumping off. 

·        o   Before each climb, ensure crash pads (where present) are positioned properly so that you land in the middle of the pad. 

·        o   Use a spotter to help position crash pads (where present) and ensure a clear landing zone. 

·        o   Keep Landing Zones Clear: Do not lounge on pads or walk under climbers. Remove all personal items (like water bottles) from landing zones. Be aware at all times because you could land on or be landed on by other participants.

·        Proper Falling Technique Can Reduce Injuries: 

·        o   First, upon falling from the wall, spot your landing. 

·        o   Second, stay relaxed and bend your knees and elbows. 

·        o   Next, pull in your arms. Avoid extending your arms to reach for the floor. 

·        o   Lastly, as you land, absorb the impact with your legs bent and roll to the ground.

·        Ratings: Latitude Climbing rates the difficulty of boulder problems with a circuit grading scale with red tag problem being the easiest. A key for the circuit grading scale can be found posted in the Facilities.

·        Top-Out Bouldering: Top out bouldering is not permitted.

·        New Climbers: Those who are new to bouldering should start with easier problems (red tagged problems) and avoid climbing the full height of the wall until they are more comfortable with climbing, down climbing, proper falling technique, and how to utilize crash pads (where present).

·        While Latitude Climbing takes substantial measures to mitigate the risks of Bouldering, it cannot eliminate all risks. Risks of injury and death are present even when you and Latitude Climbing take all available safety measures. 

LATITUDE CLIMBING AND FITNESS – FACILITY ORIENTATION

·        All climbers and observers must check in at the front desk before proceeding into Latitude Climbing.

·        Climbing is inherently dangerous. Participants must assume the risks of climbing. All climbers, facility participants, individuals operating a safety system at Latitude Climbing, and anyone walking on a padded surface must sign (or their parent/legal guardian must sign) Latitude Climbing’s Waiver and Release of Liability for any Injury or Death and Assumption of Risks form.

·        Double check your partner’s safety system (Knots / Harness / Carabiners / Belay Device) before every climb!

·        Latitude Climbing staff reserve the right to check safety systems at any time.

·        Individuals desiring to utilize the auto belay and/or top rope systems at Latitude Climbing must be pass the corresponding Belay Safety Check. Those individuals who do not pass or choose to not take the Auto Belay Safety Check may not utilize the auto belay, belay others or tie knots, and must wait a minimum of 24 hours before re-taking the Belay Safety Check. Latitude Climbing staff reserve the right to revoke belay privileges at any time. Any customer that does not pass the Safety Check twice, will only be permitted to take the Safety Check for a third time after taking a required belay instruction course.

·        All persons using Latitude Climbing are expected to respect other individuals at the Facility and conduct themselves in good order. Persons deemed by Latitude Climbing staff to be behaving in an unsafe or disorderly fashion will be asked to leave the facility.

·        Youth: Youth climbers under the age of 13 must be supervised by an adult (18 years or older) or by an Latitude Climbing staff member. Youth under the age of 14 are not permitted in fitness areas. Parents and caregivers are responsible for the supervision of their children.

·        Belay Devices – all persons that wish to lead climbing in the Facilities agree that they are only permitted to use an approved belay device as dictated by Latitude Climbing and Fitness. Under no circumstances will a non-approved device be used.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT  

I acknowledge, for myself and any minor child or children on whose behalf I have signed the Terms and Conditions for Access to Facility, Participation in Events and Engagement in Activities (“Agreement”), that:  

(a) I agree that nothing in the Bouldering Orientation and Facility Orientation unto which this Acknowledgment is attached shall be construed to alter, modify, or extinguish any element of the Agreement;

(b) I understand that I or such minor child or children identified as the “Participant” are required to complete orientation and/or training before participating in climbing and bouldering activities;  

(c) I understand that if I or such minor child or children identified as the Participant need additional assistance, orientation, instruction, training or assessment during my or such Participant’s use of the Facility, participation in Events and/or engagement in Activities at any future time, then it is my responsibility to seek such assistance, orientation, instruction, training or assessment from the staff prior to participating in any activity for which I am not, or such Participant is not, trained or qualified; and
