SPORT PRACTICE RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

I, the undersigned, declare and certify for proper purposes and effects that I have been duly informed and guided about the Windsurfing/Kitesurfing sports, as well as about the condition, operation and use of the equipment. I am also aware that the referred practice is a sport/recreational activity, which by its nature involves danger and risk (bodily injury or death), as follows:

  • Jellyfish burning
  • Collision with a boat
  • Collision with a rock in or out of the water
  • Collision with fish corrals or fishing nets
  • Muscle pain due to sports practice
  • Dehydration due to high temperatures
  • Risks linked to travels through uninhabited routes with no mobile signal
  • Drowning on the waves
  • Having my equipment damaged by the waves

Therefore, I commit myself for imperative safety to follow strictly the instructions for the practice, since I am aware of the prohibition to perform certain maneuvers or actions. I am also aware that those attitudes, which may endanger either my safety or other users’, are not allowed and that the practice of these sports must be according to the established parameters and requirements, observing the safety rules of both facilities and/or equipment. The gear needs to be in very good condition.

I still declare, under penalty of perjury of law, that I have checked the equipment for the sport practice and received it in a perfect condition of use and operation. Furthermore, I have been informed on all the guidelines about its use, including with regard to all those allowed and prohibited maneuvers and/or actions during the sport practice.

Moreover, I expressly declare, under penalty of perjury of law, that I am fully able to understand the rules of the mentioned sports and above all that I am in perfect physical and mental health both for practicing and taking up the risk exposure. I state and declare not having any health problems such as neurological, bone, joint, muscle, coronary and/or any other medical condition or risk factor that can affect or prevent the practice and not having ingested alcohol or other toxic substances that may affect the activity.

I am fully responsible as to the veracity of the information now provided and I am aware that it may affect my health condition. Thus, I totally release the Surfin Sem Fim from the responsibility for any damage, injury or death and for the consequences that may eventually arise during the practice of the sport, even if caused by a third party. I, the undersigned, expressly declare, under penalty of perjury of law, that Surfin Sem Fim has no responsibility or obligation to repair or compensate any damage and/or accidents that I suffer while practicing the referred sports that may cause a personal injury or death, even if caused by a third party, especially because it is a risk sport. I am duly aware of the procedures to follow and the consequences arising from their non-fulfilment.

I also declare that I am directly and exclusively responsible for any accidents that may occur during the practice of the sports, weather relative to me or to third parties. Therefore, I will civil and criminally answer for all material and moral damage, lost profits or losses that I might cause to others, directly or indirectly, exempting Surfin Sem Fim of any encumbrance or charge, claim or responsibility that may result from this statement. Thus, Surfin Sem Fim is not responsible for any kind of refund, reimbursement, payment or compensation. I still declare, under penalty of perjury of law, that my above-mentioned qualification is authentic or true.

This statement is under penalty of perjury of law; hence, I am aware that in case of false allegations I will be subject to the sanctions provided for by the Criminal Code and other applicable statutory penalties. In addition and expressly declaring to have provided all the information and declarations with absolute freedom, loyalty and truthfulness, so aware of the civil and criminal responsibility for the declaration and veracity, I irrevocably sign the present Responsibility Statement in a single sheet for legal effects.

If at any time the guides decide that for some reasons (too tired, too slow, etc) I have to go out of the water for a pause and/or do part of the distance on the car, I have to understand and respect their decision.
