My participation in this activity is purely voluntary, and I elect to participate in spite of the risks. Additionally, I agree to wear a U.S. Coast Guard approved personal flotation device (life jacket) and wetsuit bottom (or clothing that provides equivalent protection) while participating in this activity.

I hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to indemnify and hold harmless STEEL from any and all claims, demands, or causes of action, which are in any way connected with my participation in this activity or my use STEEL’s equipment or facilities, including any such claims which allege negligent acts or omissions of STEEL.

I also agree that this document is valid for subsequent visits and participation at STEEL. I have had sufficient opportunity to read this entire document. I have read and understood it, and I agree to be bound by its terms.

PROTECTIVE WETSUIT REFUSAL AGREEMENT

I, for myself and/or on behalf of my child or legal ward, have been fully warned and advised by Steel City Jet Ski Rentals (hereinafter collectively referred to as ‘STEEL’), that we should wear a properly fitted wetsuit bottom, or clothing that provides equivalent protection, while riding or being around personal watercraft (e.g. jet skis, wave runners, etc.) in order to protect against injuries and/or death caused by water from the jet thrust nozzle being forced into the rectum or vagina. I understand that by not wearing a properly fitted wetsuit bottom, or clothing that provides equivalent protection, I will be going against manufacturers’ requirements and putting myself at an increased risk for injuries, and against the advice of STEEL and numerous court cases I am refusing this critical safety precaution.

I/we the undersigned have read the foregoing statement carefully before signing and do understand its warnings.
