1. I acknowledge that my participation in Slingshot Activities entails known and unanticipated risks that could result in physical or emotional injury, paralysis, death, or damage to myself, to property, or to third parties.

2. I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all of the risks existing in this activity. My participation in this activity is purely voluntary, and I elect to participate in spite of the risks.

3. I hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to indemnify and hold harmless RS 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 of RS equipment or facilities, including any such claims which allege negligent acts or omissions of RS

5. I certify that I have adequate insurance to cover any injury or damage I may cause or suffer while participating, or else I agree to bear the costs of such injury or damage myself. I further certify that I am willing to assume the risk of any medical or physical condition I may have.

6. In the event that I file a lawsuit against RS, I agree to do so solely in the state of Virginia, and I further agree that the substantive law of that state shall apply in that action without regard to the conflict of law rules of that state. I agree that if any portion of this agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining document shall remain in full force and effect. 

By signing this document, I acknowledge that if anyone is hurt or property is damaged during my participation in this activity, I may be found by a court of law to have waived my right to maintain a lawsuit against RS on the basis of any claim from which I have released them herein. I also agree that this document is valid for subsequent visits and participation at RS. 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.
