    The Giants Throne

    We are doing our best to have a Reno4x4 and Rock Gods wheelin day at the Throne. We are working on legal issues as well as insurance concerns. When we finally open the park to local clubs, the upper competion lines will not be open. Comp lines will not be open in all fairness to W.E. Rock and Calroc competitors. Please be patient, we really want our local people to be able to wheel at The Giants Throne.

    Waivers don't keep you from getting sued. You will still need insurance.

    Nothing will prevent a moron from suing another person, but if a waiver is signed, the courts will more-than-likely send the plaintiff to Darwin-reeducation-camp.

    Take a look at the back of a lift ticket...by purchasing, the user absolves the ski resort of any injury (including death), which may result from use.

    www.sae.org/students/waiver-liability.pdf

    www.tarleton.edu/~stuserv/liabilitywaiver.doc

    from http://injury-law.freeadvice.com/injury-law/waiver_liability.htm
    How effective is a waiver of liability?

    Many people try to protect themselves by getting everyone they deal with to sign a writing in which others waive liability (give up or release) for potential personal injuries. These waivers or releases have become quite common, especially with respect to recreational activities - for example at ski slopes, bicycle and skate rental shops, bungee jump parks, and amusement parks (just to name a few).

    Some sports have been found by courts to be inherently dangerous, such as bungee jumping or skydiving. If a state court has determined that a sport is inherently dangerous, the participants in the sport are said to have voluntarily waived their right to recover in the event of personal injury. This is because the sport is generally known to cause injuries and a person participating in an inherently dangerous sport should know the dangers and by participating has assumed the risk of injury.

    Assumption of risk has been held to prevent the owner of a baseball park or a golf course from being held responsible to an injured party who was hit by a stray ball. This often holds true even without a specific waiver of liability. By going to a ballpark or a golf course courts have generally held that a person has assumed the risk of being hit by a ball at ballparks and golf courses.

    This is essentially what allowed skateparks to be built.

    And can't wait to wheel out there - looks like a really cool spot!

    You forgot to mention that it's within 20 miles and next door to a "Ranch" making for a full Saturday of recreation.
