1. ACTIVITY AND ASSOCIATED RISKS: I have chosen to participate in the following activity:

(hereinafter referred to as “the Activity”), which is organized by Extreme Water Sports (hereinafter referred to

as “XTREME”). I understand that

  • the Activity is inherently hazardous, and I may be exposed to dangers and hazards, including some of the following: unpredictable ocean or river currents, lightning, hypothermia, hostile or aggressive wildlife, drowning, death, falls, fractures, concussions, dangerous weather, overexertion, overheating, injuries from my lack of fitness or conditioning, equipment failures, or my failure to wear a personal flotation device or use other protective gear, and negligence of others;
  • as a consequence of these risks, I may be seriously hurt or disabled or may die from the resulting injuries, and my property may also be damaged;
  • Hospital facilities, qualified medical care, and emergency medical evacuation may be limited or unavailable during portions of the Activity; and
  • XTREME assumes no responsibility for providing medical care during the Activity, and I will have to pay for any medical care and/or evacuation that I incur.

In consideration of the permission to participate in the Activity, I agree to the terms contained in this document.

2. ASSUMPTION OF THE RISKS: I hereby freely assume the above-mentioned risks as well as other risks not listed that are part of this activity, and any harm, injury or loss that may occur to me or my property as a result of my participation in the Activity or during any transportation to or from the Activity—including any injury or loss caused by the negligence of XTREME, its employees, agents and officers, its contractors, and other Activity participants. I also understand that any equipment that I provide or may borrow or rent from XTREME or any other provider I use at my own risk and that any such equipment is provided without any warranty about its condition or suitability.

3. RELEASE OF LIABILITY: I hereby RELEASE XTREME, its employees, agents, officers, and contractors, the providers of any equipment used in the Activity, land owner, municipal or governmental providers of use permits, and their respective employees, officers, and directors (“the Released Parties”) FROM ALL LIABILITIES, CAUSES OF ACTION, CLAIMS AND DEMANDS that arise in any way from any injury, death, loss or harm that occur to me or to any other person or to any property during the Activity or in any way related to the Activity, including

during transportation to or from the Activity. This RELEASE includes claims for the negligence of the Released Parties and claims for strict liability for abnormally dangerous activities. This RELEASE does not extend to claims for gross negligence, intentional or reckless misconduct, or any other liabilities that Florida law does not permit to be excluded by agreement. I also agree NOT TO SUE or make a claim against the Released Parties for death, injuries, loss or harm that occur during the Activity or are related in any way to the Activity.

In accordance with these promises, I will reimburse the Released Parties for any damages, reasonable settlements and defense costs, including attorney’s fees that they incur because of any such claims made against them. I agree that in the event of my death or disability, the terms of this agreement, including the indemnification obligation in this Section, will be binding on my estate, and my personal representative, executor, administrator or guardian will be obligated to respect and enforce them.

5. AGREEMENT TO FOLLOW DIRECTIONS: I agree to follow the rules for the Activity provided to me and to follow directions given to me by the leaders of the Activity, including WEARING A LIFE VEST OR PERSONALFLOTATION DEVICE whenever I am on the water.

6. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS: I acknowledge that XTREME has no control over and assumes no responsibility for the actions of any independent contractors providing any services for the Activity.
