Hire Terms and Conditions

River Deep Mountain High is not responsible for the use of the equipment. We only provide equipment to be used under the skills and abilities of the hirer, we require no proof of ability and offer no advice or instruction in the use of the equipment and how they are to be used.

The hirer acknowledges that stand up paddling and open water swimming is an activity with inherent risks of injury to persons and property. The hirer must be aware of those risks and understand them. River Deep Mountain High requires all paddleboard hirers to wear a Buoyancy Aid at all times while on the water. The hirer understands the dangers of paddling on tidal or still water, swimming in cold water and understands that weather can play a factor in paddling safety and that such activities are subject to the unpredictable forces of nature.

The hirer agrees to return the items on the stated day in the condition in which I received them. Any damaged equipment will be charged for at full retail price for replacement or repair if deemed appropriate, regardless of how damage was caused.

River Deep Mountain High acts in good will when hiring out equipment and as such expects such from the hirer. We reserve the right to withdraw and collect our equipment at any point and for any reason during a hire period.

The hirer is satisfied with the serviceable condition of the equipment.

River Deep Mountain High will not provide instruction or advice on the use or location best suited to the hirer’s group.
