PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY. IT IS A LEGAL CONTRACT AND AFFECTS ANY RIGHTS YOU MAY HAVE IF YOU ARE INJURED OR OTHERWISE SUFFER DAMAGES WHILE PARTICIPATING IN CLIMBING ACTIVITIES ON THE CLIMBING WALL

In consideration of my being permitted by CW Sundiver LLC d/b/a Soko Outfitters (“Soko”) to use its climbing wall (“Climbing Wall”), and/or participate in any Climbing Activity and for other good and valuable consi deration I, agree to the following Waiver and I make the following representations:

Inherent Risks and Dangers of Climbing. I hereby acknowledge that there are inherent risks in Climbing Activities, including climbing on artificial surfaces, which cannot be eliminated. I realize that those risks include, but are not limited to: injuries resulting from the negligence of other climbers, belayers, spotters, spectators or users of the Climbing Wall, including negligence of Soko employees and agents, falls from or contact with walls or equipment, injuries resulting from rope abrasion, entanglement, and other injuries that may result from activities or other persons, including but not limited to climbing, rappelling, belaying, lowering on a rope, rescue or emergency activities, as well as injuries, abrasions, and cuts resulting from contact with other equipment and components of the Climbing Wall, injuries from falling participants or equipment, misuse or failure of equipment, holds which may have become loose or damaged, injuries or property damage resulting from hair or loose clothing getting caught in equipment, injuries resulting from personal physical and mental limits including but not limited to fatigue, chill, heat, and dizziness, which may diminish reaction time and increase risks of accident, personal strength, coordination, sense of balance, and the ability to follow or give directions while climbing, belaying, lifting, spotting, or being a spectator, and accidents which cannot be foreseen.

Acknowledgment of Additional Risks and Voluntary Participation. I acknowledge that the above list is not inclusive of all possible risks associated with the use of the Climbing Wall, and/or the sport of climbing and I agree that said list in no way limits the extent or reach of this release. I also recognize that there are both foreseeable and unforeseeable risks of injury or death that may occur from the Climbing Activities. My participation in the Climbing Activities is voluntary.

I agree to pay attention to the state and condition of the ropes, anchors and other equipment I may use, and to advise staff members if I do any damage or notice damage or problems. I certify that I have read the posted rules, and accept responsibility for failure to abide by these rules. If Soko personnel makes a specific request of or instruction to me, I agree to comply.
