I . I understand that alpine skiing, snowboarding, other competitive and sports activities are HAZARDOUS ACTIVITIES. I understand that alpine skiing, snowboarding and the use of skis, snowboards, other equipment and lifts involves risk of injury to any and all parts of my body. I understand that there are numerous risks and dangers inherent in the sports of alpine skiing, snowboarding and other activities including but not limited to: surface or sub-surface snow or ice conditions whether natural or machine-made, the unevenness of the surface which contains rocks, bumps, ruts, stumps, the steepness of the terrain, jumps, ramps, terrain elements and other features, whether natural or man-made, collisions with other trail users, trees, poles or objects. I understand that having a Sierra-at-Tahoe (SAT) employee present does not lessen the amount or severity of the risks of these activities. I understand that SAT is not responsible for my safety. It is further understood that training or competing is more HAZARDOUS than recreational skiing and snowboarding. Furthermore, I understand that I must keep deliberate and conscious control of my physical body, both on the ground and in the air, while properly using my equipment in variable weather, snow and terrain conditions. I understand aerial somersaulting maneuvers (front and back "flips" including any type of inverted spin maneuvers) are hazardous activities and SAT discourages the use of aerial somersaulting maneuvers while training or in competition .

As a condition of myself, or my child, being entitled to participate in the activities at SAT and being permitted to gain access to and use the SAT facilities and premises, I hereby promise not to bring ( on my behalf, on behalf of my child or otherwise) any claim against or sue RELEASEES .

I agree that there have been no warranties, expressed or implied, which have been made to me, which extend beyond the description of the equipment listed on this form.

6. I agree with the premise that a participant is a competitor at all times, whether practicing for competition or in competition . I agree that the competitor is always provided an opportunity to conduct a reasonable physical and visual inspection of the training, race or competition course, and I agree to physically and visually inspect the course before competing or training. I agree and understand that the competitor will be held to assume the risk of all course conditions including, but not limited to, weather and snow conditions, premises , course construction or layout, other competitors, spectators and obstacles.
