1. I acknowledge that surfing entails known and unanticipated risks which could result in physical or emotional injury, paralysis, death, or damage to myself, to property, or to third parties.

The risks include, among other things: Being hit by the board, other surfers or their boards which could result in cuts, bruises, abrasions, or concussions; hitting the bottom of the ocean; sprains, strains, broken bones, paralysis, even death; exhaustion, dehydration, sunburn; exposure to poisonous and/or carnivorous sea creatures; and accidental drowning. Furthermore, MBS Surf Bali instructors have difficult jobs to perform. They seek safety, but they are not infallible. They might be unaware of a participant’s fitness or abilities. They might misjudge the weather, or environmental conditions. They may give incomplete warnings or instructions, and the equipment being used might malfunction.

Foreign countries have their own laws and standards of acceptable conduct; food and water related illnesses; foreign political, legal, social, transportation, health, and economic conditions; different standards of design, safety, and maintenance of buildings, public places, and conveyances; local & medical facilities and providers; weather conditions; criminal activity, environmental hazards; standards of living and health standards that are not equivalent to life in European countries, United States or Australia.

2. I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all of the risks existing in this activity. My participation in this activity is purely voluntary, and I elect to participate in spite of the risks, also if I partake in any activity on my own free time during the retreat, at my own free will.

3. I hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and agree to indemnify and hold harmless MBS Surf Bali from any and all claims, demands, or causes of action, which are in any way connected with my participation in this activity or my use of MBS Surf Bali equipment or facilities, including any such claims which allege negligent acts or omissions of MBS Surf Bali .

4. Should MBS Surf Bali or anyone acting on their behalf, be required to incur attorney’s fees and costs to enforce this agreement, I agree to indemnify and hold them harmless for all such fees and costs.

5. I certify that I have adequate insurance to cover any injury or damage I may cause or suffer while participating, or else I agree to bear the costs of such injury or damage myself. I further certify that I am willing to assume the risk of any medical or physical condition I may have.

In the event that I file a lawsuit against MBS Surf Bali , I agree to do so solely in the country of Indonesia and I further agree that the substantive law of Indonesia shall apply in that action without regard to the conflict of law rules of that country. I agree that if any portion of this agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.

By booking with this company, I acknowledge that if anyone is hurt or property is damaged during my participation in this activity, I may be found by a court of law to have waived my right to maintain a lawsuit against MBS Surf Bali on the basis of any claim from which I have released them herein.
