1. ASSUMPTION OF RISK

1.1 I am fully aware that participation in paragliding and hang-gliding and powered forms of either and all related activities are calculated, high-risk activities that contain inherent risks and dangers (including serious injury or death) that no amount of care, caution, instruction, or expertise can eliminate.
