I agree I am voluntarily participating in this National Ski Patrol EVENT/TRAINING.   I understand that the EVENT/TRAINING may involve extensive field work on first aid scenarios, skiing, and toboggan handling along with other activities which ski patrollers (or other Outdoor Emergency Care providers in other settings, like bike patrols, white water, etc.) encounter in their duties of patrolling and training.   I realize there are inherent risks in this type of activity including changing weather conditions, changing surface conditions, ice, bare spots, rocks, stumps, trees and the possibility of collisions with manmade and natural objects or other skiers / riders, the exposure to bodily substances, pathogens and other infectious substances and that such activity can be dangerous and can result in serious injury, illness or death.   I knowingly assume the risk of participation and understand I can withdraw from this EVENT/TRAINING at any time.   I understand that by participating in this EVENT/TRAINING I may also encounter additional risks not inherent to a normal participant to the sport of skiing (or other outdoor activities).   I agree to personally assume all of these risks.  I also agree that I will rely solely on my own judgment regarding my personal safety and ability with regard to the terrain, circumstances and conditions in which I may be placed upon and asked to demonstrate or perform to accomplish the tasks involved in EVENT/TRAINING, and that I will decline to perform any activities if I believe I am placing myself in an unsafe situation or subject to possible injury or death if I proceeded.

 

            As a requirement of this EVENT/TRAINING, I acknowledge that I agree to waive any right I might have to file a lawsuit for any injury or death resulting from my participation in this EVENT/TRAINING and I hereby remise, release, and forever discharge the venue hosting the event, the National Ski Patrol System, Incorporated and its members, both individually and jointly, as well as the NSP’s Sponsors and Industry Partners participating and I agree that no one else may file a lawsuit in my name related to my participation in this EVENT/TRAINING.   If any part of this Release shall be determined to be unenforceable, all other parts shall be given full force and effect.
