Please Note: Minors (Climbers 17 years of age and younger) must have a parent s or legal guardian s signature on all forms. Climbers 13 years of age and younger must have adult supervision at all times. Climbers must be at least 15 years of age to take a belay clinic. The cost of the clinic is $ ***Individuals are not eligible to take a belay clinic or belay at the wall if there is a history of epilepsy or any other condition that could alter level of consciousness. Please ask the climbing staff is you are unsure if you fit into this category. The following are prohibited in the climbing wall area: o Swinging or jumping on ropes. o Climbing into a position where you will be eye level or higher with top anchors. o Grabbing bolt hangers.

Personal belongings must be kept in a locker. o Excessive noise. Noise must be controlled for proper safety communication. o Stepping on ropes and dropping/tossing carabiners or belay devices. Belaying Policies: o Belayers must lower climbers in a smooth and controlled manner. o BELAYERS MUST NEVER REMOVE THEIR BRAKE HAND FROM THE ROPE! o Belay from standing positions only. o Talk with other climbers and try to belay for each other. Climbing staff will belay when they can, but the main responsibility for climbing staff is safety and supervision of the climbing wall. If climbers are experienced and have training from somewhere else, the normal belay clinic and subsequent test can be waived depending upon the type and quality of experience climbers have. Climbers may be eligible to take an advanced test, talk with a staff member if interested in the advanced test. Belay tests are dependent on staff availability, but are usually offered during normal climbing hours at a cost of $5.00. A follow through figure-eight knot is required to tie in a climber. Campus Recreation requests that participants do not step under or over an active belay. Please report any unsafe wall conditions to Campus Recreation climbing staff immediately. Immediately report any injury to Campus Recreation climbing staff. The numbers of climbers at any one time may be limited to ensure proper supervision. Climbing wall staff may limit individual wall time if climbers are waiting.

To boulder, all climbing wall policies must be followed with the exception of the ability to belay. The following policies are specific to the use of the bouldering area. o Campus Recreation highly recommends the use of spotters while bouldering. It is encouraged to ask the Campus Recreation staff about proper spotting techniques. o The climber may not boulder above or below any other climbers. o Only the Campus Recreation climbing staff may switch holds if/when necessary. o Be safe, be creative, have fun! Waning: Indoor climbing does not adequately prepare anyone for the greater hazards one may meet when climbing outdoors. Climbing outdoors requires additional skills.

I have full knowledge of the nature and extent of the risks inherent in the use of the Climbing Wall and that I am voluntarily assuming these risks for either myself or my minor child.

Receipt of Policy. I further certify that a copy of the CRC Climbing policies has been made available to me, that I have read the policies, and I agree to abide by all policies and rules of the sport, facility, and/or class as mandated by the Campus Recreation Department. Helmet Waiver. Helmets are required for all individuals under 18 years of age. However, from time to time, situations which cause exceptions to this general rule arise outside of the control of the University in which due to the personal choice of the child or that of his/her parent (e.g. hairstyle) the manufacturer s helmet will not fit or does not fit a child properly. Should such a situation arise and the UIAA approved helmet does not fit my child, I may still wish for my child to partake in the climbing wall. As such, I fully understand and acknowledge that for reasons outside of the University s control and instead due to my personal choice or that of my child (e.g. hairstyle), the manufacturer s helmets may not fit or may not fit my child properly. By signing this Agreement below, I hereby acknowledge that I understand all the risks associated with not wearing a helmet and if I voluntary choose to allow my minor child to participate in the Climbing Wall at the University of Cincinnati, I hereby waive and release UC, its officers, directors, employees and agents from any and all liability associated with my voluntary refusal to wear a safety helmet. As an adult who chooses to waive my use of a UIAA approved helmet, by signing this Agreement below, I acknowledge and agree that wearing a UIAA approved helmet may help prevent head injuries and I acknowledge and I am aware of the risks associated with not wearing a helmet. I understand that UIAA approved helmets are available to me upon request at no cost. By not wearing a safety helmet, I am refusing this critical safety precaution, against the advice of the CRC Climbing Wall and the University of Cincinnati, and hereby waive and release UC, its officers, directors, employees and agents from any and all liability associated with my voluntary refusal to wear a safety helmet. Acknowledgment of Understanding. By signing this form for either myself or my minor child, I am stating that I have read this Agreement, fully understand its terms and understand that it affects my legal rights and how it affects those legal rights. I am signing this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily, and intend for it to be a complete and unconditional release of liability to the greatest extent of the law.
