Without limitation, this includes serious bodily injury, emotional distress, mental suffering, paralysis, drowning, near drowning, death, or property damage resulting from the negligence or carelessness of Releasees, and/or that I may suffer as a result of inherently dangerous activities and conditions at the Venue.

I understand and acknowledge that my presence and participation in the Activities at the Venue are inherently dangerous and involve significant risk of bodily injury, death, and property damage, and while the Venue’s rules, certain safety equipment, and my or the minor’s personal discipline may reduce these risks, the risks of property damage, serious injury or death exist regardless of my or the minor’s experience or familiarity with such Activities.

4)      I FOR MYSELF AND/OR THE MINOR(S) understand and acknowledge that Releasees may not be aware of my or the minor’s fitness limitations, abilities, familiarity with the water and surfing, and/or health conditions. I hereby represent that for myself and/or the minor(s) (i) I/we are in good health and in proper physical and mental condition to participate in the Activities; and (ii) I/we are not under the influence of alcohol or any illicit or prescription drugs which would in any way impair my ability to safely participate in the Activities, and will not be under such influence at any time I/we participate in the Activities. I agree that it is my sole responsibility to determine whether I and/or the minor are sufficiently fit and healthy enough to participate in the Activities. 


5)      I FOR MYSELF AND/OR THE MINOR(S) waive, release and discharge, and agree not to sue Releasees all claims and liabilities, resulting from: (1) the Releasees': (a) negligence, including failing to maintain the Venue in a safe condition; (b) failure to provide adequate or adequately trained lifeguards or safety personnel or patrols at the Venue; (c) failure to maintain adequate emergency, medical, and safety procedures and protocols; (d) failure to warn me about or protect me from dangerous equipment, machinery, operations, or conditions at the Venue; (e) ownership or management of the Venue; (f) operation of services, technology or equipment at the Venue or otherwise made available by the Releasees; and/or (g) failure to maintain or create places to exit the deep waters of the Wai Kai Lagoon other than at certain designated entry/exit points; and/or (2) the conduct of vendors, emergency personnel, rescue personnel and all other third parties at the Venue including, without limitation, conduct that is negligent, grossly negligent, or intentional.

7)      I FOR MYSELF AND/OR THE MINOR(S) agree that if I make a claim for bodily injury, psychological injury, paralysis, drowning, near drowning, death, or property damage arising from or related to the Venue (hereafter referred to as "My Claim") against a third party and one or more claims, cross-claims or third party complaints (hereafter referred to as "Third Party Claims") are made against Releasees including, without limitation, claims for contribution or indemnification, I will waive, release, reduce or diminish My Claim to the fullest extent necessary to eliminate Releasees' liability with respect to the Third Party Claims.

8)      I FOR MYSELF AND/OR THE MINOR(S) agree that if any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable, that determination shall not render this entire Agreement invalid or unenforceable, and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
