I also indemnify and hold Dallas Kayak Company harmless for any claims, demands, or causes of actions made by third parties for my own acts or omissions when renting, transporting, or using rented equipment.

I further certify that I have no medical or physical conditions which could interfere with my safety in this activity, or else I am willing to assume - and bear the costs of --all risks that may be created, directly or indirectly, by any such condition.
