RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT

Our activities offer unique and memorable experiences. However, like all adventure experiences they carry inherent risks that we, as an experienced operator, want to communicate clearly to all participants. By participating in our experiences, you are voluntarily assuming these risks.

Serious risks associated with our experiences include but are not limited to:

1. Physical Injury: Despite all safety measures in place, there remains a risk of injury. This could range from minor injuries like bruises, sprains, strains to more serious injuries including cuts, fractures, and dislocations. AJ Hackett Bungy New Zealand has never had a fatality in its history of operation.
2. Equipment Malfunction: While we maintain and inspect our equipment regularly and adhere to industry standards, there is always a potential risk of equipment failure or malfunction.
3. Natural Elements: Our experiences are often conducted in natural settings, and therefore, there are risks associated with environmental elements. This could include adverse weather conditions, water hazards, rockfalls, and earthquakes.
4. Emotional and Psychological Reactions: The intense nature of our activities can lead to various emotional and psychological reactions, including shock, panic, high stress, fainting & dizziness, nausea, especially for those with a fear of heights or pre-existing mental health conditions.
5. Pre-existing Injuries and Medical Conditions: The risk of injury may be compounded by any pre-existing injuries and medical conditions. These conditions are: High or low blood pressure – High myopia – Heart condition – Epilepsy – Broken or fractured bones/dislocations or bone disorders – Fragile skin – Neurological disorders – Diabetes – Asthma – Prosthetics (includes cosmetic implants) – Panic/anxiety attacks – Any recent sprains/muscular injuries – Disabilities/physical impairments. Please note the above list does not automatically exclude you from our activities, and the list is not exhaustive. If you have concerns about a condition not mentioned, please contact our team prior to travel. Unfortunately, we can’t permit pregnant activity-seekers, or those with photosensitive epilepsy. And if you have osteoporosis, scoliosis, or a recent concussion, we’ll need to see a doctor’s certificate.

To minimise these risks, we:

• Conduct regular maintenance and inspections of all equipment.
• Train and certify staff who oversee all activities.
• Offer thorough pre-activity briefings and safety instructions.
• Adhere to strict weight and health guidelines for participants.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Honesty: Be truthful about your medical history and current health status. If you have any medical conditions, injuries, or concerns, consult with your physician before participating.
• Compliance: Adhere to all safety guidelines, instructions, and restrictions provided by our staff.  Improper jumping techniques could result in injuries due to the sudden deceleration and acceleration forces.
• Self-awareness: Understand your limits. If at any point you feel uncomfortable or unsure about participating, please communicate with our staff.

If you are unable to lip read, you will always need an interpreter with you. Printed safety information is available.

The Ledge Bungy & Swing may not be suitable as you are required to manually connect recovery equipment.

It has the best access, and the products have the most suitable recovery systems. Participation in activities will always be dependent on the nature of the disability and can be discretionary.
