INHERENT RISKS. It is important that each PARTICIPANT and each PARENT/GUARDIAN of each MINOR PARTICIPANT understand that the ROLL TRAIN ACTIVITIES include some known as well as unknown INHERENT RISKS of injury. These INHERENT RISKS are risks that cannot be eliminated without changing the very nature of the activity.

The following are some examples of INHERENT RISKS associated with the ROLL TRAIN ACTIVITIES and/or rental skates: Collisions with other participants; Attempting stunts, maneuvers or actions beyond the participant’s capacity, skill or ability; Slipping or tripping and falling; Unexpected equipment failures; Over-exertion; Communicable diseases; or Poor judgment or erratic behavior by the participant, other participants, or ROLL TRAIN personnel.

INJURIES. Each PARTICIPANT and each PARENT/GUARDIAN of each MINOR PARTICIPANT must understand that INJURIES can occur as a result of participating in the ROLL TRAIN ACTIVITIES, or as a result of use of the rental skates. While not comprehensive or all-inclusive, the types of potential INJURIES can be described as minor, serious or catastrophic:

* MINOR INJURY. These injuries may include, but are not limited to, painful muscle strains and sprains, headaches, bruises, and abrasions.

* SERIOUS INJURY. Some examples of serious injuries are broken bones, damaged ligaments and other painful joint injuries, concussions, and eye injuries.

* CATASTROPHIC INJURY. Some examples of catastrophic injuries are brain damage, paralysis, heart attack, and death.

SAFETY. Before participation in any ROLL TRAIN ACTIVITIES, each PARTICIPANT and each PARENT/GUARDIAN of each MINOR PARTICIPANT agrees that they are/will: 1) in able physical condition (or as modified by medication or other prescription); 2) follow any and all instructions, commands, directions or advise provided by any ROLL TRAIN personnel.
