In consideration of participating in SKATEiQ Camp or training session, I, as a participant, or as the legal guardian of a participant below the age of 18, hereby acknowledge that I am either over 18 years of age or have the legal authority to act on behalf of the minor participant.
I confirm that I have been given the opportunity to read this Release and Waiver, ask questions, and seek legal advice on its contents, if desired. By signing below, I fully and willingly agree to all the terms of this Waiver. I understand that this document is a legally binding agreement, and in doing so, I voluntarily give up substantial legal rights, including the right (and the rights of my Successors) to sue or make any claim for injuries or damages I, or the minor participant under my care, might sustain while present in, on, or around the Camp, Training Session and Facility.
I represent and warrant that I have the full right, power, and authority to enter into this Waiver on my own behalf or on behalf of the minor participant and to make the waivers and grant the rights detailed herein. I acknowledge that my signature on this Waiver is given freely and voluntarily, and I intend for it to be a complete and unconditional acceptance of all the terms stated herein, to the fullest extent allowed by law.

NO INSURANCE & MEDICAL EXPENSES: I acknowledge that it is my responsibility to have any insurance, including, but not limited to, medical, accidental disability, death coverage, and liability insurances, that I may wish to have or that is advisable to have in relation to my being present at the Camp, training session, or facility and in connection with the Purposes. I understand that the Released Parties and any other person at the Camp, training session, or facility do not and will not have insurance that covers me in connection with my attendance at the Camp, training session, or facility and my engagement in the Purposes. I am not relying on the existence of such insurance in my decision to be present at the Camp, training session, or facility and engage in the Purposes. I am responsible for securing and paying for my own medical insurance and shall be solely responsible for any medical costs and expenses (including insurance costs) incurred by me as a result of my attendance at the Camp, training session, or facility.
FITNESS, SKILLS, AND QUALIFICATIONS: I am solely responsible for evaluating my physical fitness, mental fitness, technical skills, and level of experience and competency to assess my suitability to engage in the Purposes at the Camp, training session, or facility. If I have any doubt about my capacity or suitability to undertake any activity at the Camp, training session, or facility and/or for the Purposes, I agree to cease such activity and/or remove myself from the Camp, training session, or facility as I see fit in my sole discretion.
CONSENT TO EMERGENCY FIRST AID AND MEDICAL TREATMENT: In connection with any injury I may sustain or illness or other medical conditions I may experience during my presence at the Camp and the Camp and Facility and/or engaging in the Purposes, I authorize any emergency first aid, medication, medical treatment, or surgery deemed necessary by the attending personnel. I further authorize the attending personnel to execute on my behalf any permission forms, consents, or other appropriate documents relating to medical attention and to act on my behalf if I am not able or immediately available to do so and the same is urgent in their sole discretion. I acknowledge and agree that emergency assistance and/or treatment may be rendered by persons with training or experience, which may not be adequate for the medical situation and/or the injuries sustained by me, and waive any claim in respect thereof in accordance with section 10 following. I expressly acknowledge that the Camp and Camp and Facility are some distance from medical facilities and that distance may exacerbate any injury or condition sustained by me.
SPECIAL EQUIPMENT & SAFETY MEASURES: I acknowledge that undertaking athletic activity at the Facility requires special equipment, extraordinary safety gear, and specific skills and techniques. Skateboarding structures, demand special equipment and safety configurations, along with unique skills and techniques. I understand the risks involved in such activities and will ensure I am appropriately equipped and educated about safety measures.
AGREEMENT TO FOLLOW CAMP, TRAINING SESSION, OR FACILITY RULES: I agree to follow all rules and conditions governing my attendance at the Camp, training session, or facility and to follow the directions of staff and management at the Camp, training session, or facility. My agreement to the foregoing is a condition of me being granted permission to be present at the Camp, training session, or facility.
HAZARDS: I agree that if I observe any unusual hazard during my presence at the Camp, training session, or facility, I will immediately remove myself from such location and bring notice of such hazard to the immediate attention of staff present at the Camp, training session, or facility. If I am to undertake any activity on a structure at the Camp, training session, or facility, I agree to carefully inspect and satisfy myself that the structure on which I am to undertake that activity is reasonably safe for its intended use. If I have any doubts as to such safety and/or suitability, I agree not to participate in the activity on that structure and immediately remove myself from my perceived area of danger.
ASSUMPTION OF RISK: I understand and appreciate the significant risk of injury and property damage that arises from being present at the Camp, training session, or facility, including, but not limited to, minor and major injuries, as well as catastrophic injuries including, but not limited to, brain injury, paralysis, and death. I understand that while rules, equipment, and personal discipline may reduce this risk, the risk of damage to my property and great personal injury to me at, around, and on the Camp, training session, or facility, whether caused by me or caused by others, still exists, is inherent in such activities, and cannot be eliminated regardless of the standard of care taken to avoid such injuries. I acknowledge that being present around, on, or at the Camp, training session, or facility can be a dangerous activity, and that if I am a spectator or participant in the Purposes at the Camp, training session, or facility, I may be in danger of causing or being subject to damage to property and serious personal injury or death. Despite the risks, dangers, or hazards of traveling to and from the Camp, training session, or facility, being present at the Camp, training session, or facility, and engaging in the Purposes, I wish to undertake such activities and do so of my own free will and voluntarily assume all risks, dangers, and hazards, including damage to person and property, whether the risks, dangers, or hazards are known or unknown, however they may arise (including through negligence), fully aware or otherwise of the risks, dangers, and hazards.
WAIVER AND LIABILITY RELEASE: I hereby release, remise, and discharge SKATEiQ, its coaches, and the facility hosting the SKATEiQ event, and covenant not to sue any of the Released Parties for or in connection with, and waive any liability of the Released Parties for, any and all claims (including, but not limited to, the negligence of any of the Released Parties resulting in personal injury (including, without limitation, death), accidents, illness, and property loss), howsoever arising from or in connection with my presence at the Camp, training session, or facility and my engagement in the Purposes, including without limitation in connection with travel to and from the same, any medical or other care I may or may not receive.
PHOTO AND VIDEO RELEASE: I hereby give SKATEiQ, its coaches, and the facility hosting the SKATEiQ event, and parties deriving title under them, the right to record my voice, person, actions, performances, and likeness in any manner (not limited to the means of photograph, video, film, audio-only recording) in connection with the Purposes and my presence at the Camp, training session, or facility in any location and at any time, whether in athletic performance, training, or so-called on-camera or off-camera situations or otherwise. SKATEiQ, its successors, assigns, and licensees shall be free to use the same in any and all manners, whether now or hereafter known, including for both commercial and promotional purposes, in perpetuity throughout the universe, provided that such use shall not be derogatory. Such use shall be without further reference or payment to me. SKATEiQ, its successors, assigns, and licensees shall be free to use my real (and professional, if applicable) name/nickname in connection therewith.
INDEMNIFICATION: I hereby agree to indemnify and hold SKATEiQ, its coaches, and the facility hosting the SKATEiQ event, harmless from and against any liability, damage, award, cost, and expense (including legal costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) occasioned by or arising out of any breach or alleged breach of this Waiver, or any claim, demand, or action which is inconsistent with any warranty, representation, agreement, or grant of rights made or assumed by me hereunder, or any claim, demand, or action (including, but not limited to, personal injuries, including, without limitation, death, or damage to property) resulting from or allegedly resulting from my presence at the Camp, training session, or facility and my participation in the Purposes.
SEVERABILITY & STATUS: I agree that this Waiver is intended to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by law and that if any portion thereof is held invalid, it is agreed that the balance shall, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect. All prior negotiations, agreements, understandings, and statements made between the parties hereto in connection with the subject matter hereof that have occurred prior to the execution of the Waiver in connection with the terms of this Waiver and superseded by and merged into this completely integrated Waiver. Other parties may require you to sign additional waivers, releases, and related documentation related to some or all of the subject matter of this Waiver. To the extent if any that the terms of this Waiver conflict with the terms of any additional documentation, the terms more favorable to the Released Parties will be deemed incorporated into the Waiver. I agree that the signature by me of other documentation which may be not as favorable to the Released Parties as the terms contained in the Waiver shall in no way diminish the terms, scope, and validity of this Waiver.
DURATION: This Waiver shall govern my attendance at the Camp, training session, or facility for this and future visits until (if ever) I execute a replacement waiver and release in favor of the Released Parties which subsequent waiver and release(s) shall govern my presence at the Camp, training session, or facility and my activities of any kind thereat on a prospective basis.
