  • Using Our Gear

  • Here is the full lending policy and liability waiver that we will ask you to sign when you come in to pick up your gear. Please read it over so you know what you're agreeing to. The final page has details on what we charge if you lose or damage the gear, as well as late fees.

    It is your job to make sure our gear is taken care of.

    All gear is to be returned CLEAN and DRY. Follow the guidelines below for proper cleaning.
