4. Risks.
According to the North American Horseman's Association, numerous obvious and nonobvious inherent risks are always present in horseback riding and being around horses, despite all safety precautions. No horse is a completely safe horse. Horses are 5 to 15 times larger, 20 to 40 times more powerful and 3 to 4 times faster than a human. If a client falls from a horse to the ground it will generally be at a distance of 3 to 5 feet, and the impact may result in injury to the client. If a horse is frightened or provoked it may divert from its training and act according to its natural instincts which may include, but are not limited to: stopping short, changing direction or speed at will, shifting its weight from side to side, bucking, rearing, biting, kicking or running from danger. These risks exist for any person around a horse, whether mounted or on the ground. Client acknowledges these risks and states that she/he is not relying on Stable Transformation to advise of all the risks.
5. Acknowledgment and Assumption of Risks.
Client acknowledges that she/he bears responsibility for her/his own safety and client should not participate in any client activity unless she/he is confident that she/he can do so safely. Participation in equine activities with or conducted by Stable Transformation constitutes a knowing and voluntary assumption of all risks associated with equine activities involving Stable Transformation or being present on or using Stable Transformation property (including but not limited to inherent risks and the risk of negligence by Stable Transformation or others.
6. Helmet Use
. Client acknowledges that wearing a properly fitted and secured client riding helmet which meets or exceeds the quality standards of the SEI Certified ASTM Standard F1163 while riding, mounting, dismounting and being near horses may reduce the severity of head injuries or prevent death occurring as the result of a fall or other occurrence. Stable Transformation makes no representations as to the condition, effectiveness or suitability of any helmet it may allow client to use. All helmet related risks are assumed by client.
7. Visitors
. Should client bring to Stable Transformation any person who is not a party to an Equine Activity Liability Agreement with Stable Transformation, client agrees to educate them as to the risks of being around horses and horse operations, supervise them, be solely responsible for their safety, and to be financially responsible for any injury or loss caused by or suffered by any such person.
8. Safety Rules
. Client agrees to follow such rules for safety as are attached or are subsequently provided to them, or posted. Client acknowledges that failure to follow Stable Transformation safety rules or the directions of Stable Transformation's staff may put her/him at risk of, or increase the risk of, personal injury.
9. Premises Inspection.
Client has inspected the farm's premises and facilities and/or have in some other way satisfied himself/herself that the condition of the premises and the facilities will provide an adequate and reasonable level of safety for client and any guests, or visitors they bring on the premises.
