\nSAFETY RULES<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Before using the Track and participating in the Activity, the Participant is required to carefully read and familiarize themselves with the internal rules and safety regulations set out below. By participating in the Activity, the Participant confirms that they have read, understood, and agree to comply with these rules. These rules have legal force and are binding upon every Participant, based on the principle of voluntary action.<\/p>\n
While on the Track, the Participant must wear a properly fastened CE-certified life\/impact vest and a helmet suitable for water sports. If the Participant does not have a personal life vest and\/or helmet, they must request the necessary equipment from Park staff, who will provide it free of charge.<\/p>\n
The Participant must possess basic swimming skills. They are required to inform staff of their previous experience and preparedness. Participants without prior experience or who are unsure of their abilities must inform MWP staff before participating.<\/p>\n
The Participant must acknowledge that wakeboarding is a high-risk activity that can result in serious physical injuries and\/or death.<\/p>\n
It is strictly prohibited to use the Track under the influence of alcohol or narcotic substances.<\/p>\n
Never ride while wearing audio earphones or headphones that limit hearing ability.<\/p>\n
If you have any health conditions, you must always inform the staff before entering the Track. Do not participate in the Activity if your condition may worsen or be aggravated as a result of participation.<\/p>\n
Participants may use the Track only after receiving a verbal invitation from MWP staff.<\/p>\n
Participants must be at least 18 years old. Participants under the age of 18 may use the Track only under the responsibility of their legal representative.<\/p>\n
Swimming or diving in the Track area or between the Tracks is prohibited. Swimming is only allowed in the designated beach area located to the right of the riding Tracks.<\/p>\n
If you are a beginner, the easiest way to start riding is from a seated position in the water. Always inform the staff if it is your first time riding and if you need assistance or training.<\/p>\n
A ride may be started from:
a) a seated position in the water (entire body submerged),
b) a seated position on the edge of the platform (legs and board in the water), or
c) a standing position at the edge of the platform (board no more than 0.5 m above the water surface).<\/p>\n
Always hold the handle with both hands. Never place the handle between your legs, around your neck, or insert your hand through the handle.<\/p>\n
While riding, turning in the opposite direction must be done along the outer edge by going around the buoys placed in the water. If riding with the left foot forward, the left-side buoy must be passed on the left; if riding with the right foot forward, the right-side buoy must be passed on the right.<\/p>\n
If you fall or lose your equipment, immediately let go of the handle, swim to retrieve your equipment, and then swim back to the handle. Never try to grab or hold onto a moving handle.<\/p>\n
After a fall, the Participant should swim to the handle, grab it, assume the starting position, and raise one arm high to signal readiness to restart the ride.<\/p>\n
If, after a fall, the Participant does not wish to continue the ride, they must signal by crossing and raising both arms in front of them.<\/p>\n
To end the ride and exit to shore, the Participant must lie on their stomach and hold the handle with both hands. The Participant must release the handle in time to avoid contact with the start platform. The Participant may also exit the water independently by swimming to shore.<\/p>\n
During the ride, the Participant may perform acrobatic tricks of various difficulty levels only after carefully evaluating their abilities and fully understanding and accepting responsibility for any potential physical injuries resulting from such actions.<\/p>\n
The obstacles installed in the water are intended for use only by experienced riders. Participants must carefully assess their physical fitness and skills before attempting to use any obstacle. By using obstacles, the Participant accepts full responsibility for their own health and life in case of injury or accident caused by incorrect assessment of their abilities and\/or due to a fall or collision. In any case, we recommend starting with the simplest maneuvers on the obstacles.<\/p>\n
Obstacles installed in the water may only be used in the designated safe direction \u2014 that is, starting from the low end. (An exception applies to obstacles that have both ends specially adapted and sloped.)<\/p>\n
If you do not wish to use an obstacle, try to pass it at as wide a distance as possible. If you approach the obstacle too closely and are unable to go around it, you must release the handle to avoid a collision.<\/p>\n
In case of any uncertainties or questions, immediately contact the MWP staff.<\/p>\n
Participants must treat the provided equipment and gear with care. If the Participant notices any defect or issue with the equipment during use, they must immediately inform the MWP staff.<\/p>\n
Before starting the ride, the Participant must inform MWP staff if they intend to perform jumps from the water surface during turns and\/or elsewhere on the course.<\/p>\n
Participants are not allowed to adjust helmets, tighten bindings, or fasten life vests while riding. If such adjustments are necessary, the Participant must release the handle, stop completely, make the corrections, and only then resume the ride.<\/p>\n
Participants must immediately exit the water if a thunderstorm is approaching or thunder is heard.<\/p>\n
In the event of any accident on the course, the Participant must immediately inform MWP staff. In case of an emergency, call 112.<\/p>\n
By using the wakeboard course, you assume full responsibility for any harm to yourself, your health, and\/or your equipment.<\/p>\n
If you have any questions regarding safety, internal rules, park usage regulations, or the park in general, please contact the staff.<\/p>\n
