Equipment Hire Agreement - Important Notice

All snow sports (skiing, snowboarding and tobogganing) carry the risk of injury and damage to property. The risk of injury in snow sports is reduced but not eliminated by the correct setting of bindings, the use of wrist guards and an approved helmet. Ski bindings are designed to release under load. The tension of bindings can and should be adjusted to reflect the experience of the user and the snow conditions to be encountered.

Even when correctly fitted by an experienced technician, ski bindings are designed to release under load, which carries an inherent risk of injury for the user. Persons who are inexperienced in the use of snow sports equipment should obtain professional coaching as to the safe use of the equipment and should only use the equipment in areas certified as suitable for beginners.
