TO:
Westlake Adventure Sports Inc. (hereinafter “Westlake Adventure Sports”)*

IN EXCHANGE FOR Westlake Adventure Sports allowing me or my child to participate in adventure sports activities, I agree to the following 10 points:

1. I understand and accept the risks associated with Westlake Adventure Sports electric assist, watersports, and other activities, including the possibility of physical or emotional injury, paralysis, death, and property damage. I understand that this agreement applies not only to use of the trampolines, but also all other equipment, and all activities and games at the Westlake Adventure Sports Facility. I understand that such risks simply cannot be eliminated without jeopardizing the essential qualities of the activity. Specific risks of electric assist sports and other activities include: cuts and bruises, muscle and joint sprains and strains, broken bones, equipment failure, falling off of equipment, participants falling or landing on each other or any surface, tricks, stumbles, and bumps or potholes. Westlake Adventure Sports employees have difficult jobs to perform. They seek to create a safe environment, but they are not perfect. They might be unaware of a participant’s health or abilities. They may give incomplete warnings or instructions. They cannot watch all participants at all times. The equipment being used might malfunction. I VOLUNTARILY ACCEPT AND ASSUME ALL OF THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH TRAMPOLINE ACTIVITIES AT WESTLAKE ADVENTURE SPORTS AND I CHOOSE TO PARTICIPATE DESPITE THE RISKS.
2. I acknowledge that, in addition to the risks described above, my participation or my child’s participation in night time activities entails additional and unique risks due to reduced lighting. I understand that the reduced lighting during night time can affect depth perception and visibility and may cause me or my child to fall, slip, misstep, collide with other jumpers, or collide with equipment. I agree, on behalf of myself or my child, to accept and assume all of the risks associated with night time activities and voluntarily agree to participate in them despite the added risks.
3. If I am signing this Agreement on behalf of my child, I confirm that I have assessed the risks associated with Westlake Adventure Sports activities, in light of the specific abilities and circumstances of my child, and I VOLUNTARILY ALLOW MY CHILD TO PARTICIPATE in Westlake Adventure Sports activities and other activities despite the risks. I therefore agree that if my child is injured during Westlake Adventure Sports activities and other activities, I will accept all responsibility and liability for such injuries.
4. I confirm that I have read or heard or seen the rules governing my or my child’s participation in Westlake Adventure Sports activities and other activities. I understand that Westlake Adventure Sports rules have been implemented for the safety of all participants, and I have explained the rules to my child. I understand that my or my child’s failure to follow Westlake Adventure Sports rules could result in damage, expense, injury, or death. I acknowledge that my or my child’s failure to follow the rules could result in expulsion from Westlake Adventure Sports.
5. I agree to GIVE UP MY RIGHT TO SUE WESTLAKE ADVENTURE SPORTS for any damage, expense, physical or emotional injury, paralysis, or death that I or my family or estate may suffer as a result of my participation in Westlake Adventure Sports trampoline and other activities, DUE TO ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER, including Westlake Adventure Sports negligence, the failure to warn or protect me from risks, breach of contract, breach of any other duty of care, or breach of the Occupiers’ Liability Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. O.2. I agree to waive any and all claims that I have or may have in the future against Westlake Adventure Sports, and to RELEASE WESTLAKE ADVENTURE SPORTS FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY for any damage, expense, injury, or death.
6. I also agree to hold harmless and indemnify Westlake Adventure Sports from any and all liability for any damage, expense, injury or death caused to any third party as a result of my or my child’s participation in Westlake Adventure Sports trampoline and other activities.
7. I agree that if any portion of this Agreement is found to be void, unenforceable, or inapplicable, the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.
8. If I am signing this Agreement on behalf of a child, I confirm that I am the child’s parent or legal guardian, or that I otherwise have legal authority to sign this Agreement on behalf of the child.
9. I confirm that have read or have had sufficient opportunity to read this entire Agreement, have understood the terms of this Agreement, and AGREE TO BE BOUND by the terms of this Agreement.
10. I agree that In this Agreement, “Westlake Adventure Sports” means Westlake Adventure Sports Inc., and all related companies, affiliates, employees, agents, directors and/or officers.

For Non-Ebike products, Westlake E-Bikes does not allow refunds or exchanges unless there is significant damage from shipment, an incorrect model was received, or factory defects are covered under warranty.

For E-bikes and other ride-able mobility products, Westlake E-Bikes will allow full refunds if requested within 30 days. Refunds will be to the full amount of the original payment minus an administration fee of 15% of the original payment.

To be eligible for a return and refund, your item must be in the same condition that you received it either in or out of the original packaging, and shipping and handling handled at the customer’s expense.

Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.

If you are approved, then your refund will be processed, and we will initiate the credit to your original method of payment within 5 business days of the previously mentioned approval date.

Late or missing refunds

If you haven’t received a refund yet, first check your bank account again.

Then contact your credit card company, it may take some time before your refund is officially posted.

Next, contact your bank. There is often some processing time before a refund is posted.

If you’ve done all of this and you still have not received your refund yet, please contact us at info@westlakeebikes.ca.

We only replace items if they are defective or damaged and within the warranty period.
Send us an email at info@westlakeebikes.ca.

If the item was marked as a gift when purchased and shipped directly to you, you’ll receive a gift credit for the value of your return. Once the returned item is received, a gift certificate will be mailed to you.

If the item wasn’t marked as a gift when purchased, or the gift giver had the order shipped to themselves to give to you later, we will send a refund to the gift giver and they will find out about your return.

To return your product, you should mail your product to:

WestLake Adventure Sports Inc.
+1 (613) 242-0837
15786 Loyalist Parkway,
Bloomfield, Ontario, Canada
K0K 1G0

You will be responsible for paying for your own shipping costs for returning your item. Shipping costs are non-refundable. If you receive a refund, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from your refund.

Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you may vary.

If you are returning more expensive items, you may consider using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance. We don’t guarantee that we will receive your returned item.

Contact us at info@westlakeebikes.ca for questions related to refunds and returns.

Booking Cancellation

We approve cancelation requests for any reason up to 48 or more in advance, such cancelations will receive an 85% refund. Cancelations within 48hrs – 12hrs of 8am on the date of booking receive 50%. Finally, within 12hrs, or on the booking day receive no refund.

You can receive a full refund minus admin fees if there is a weather warning issued by the government of Canada for the region you are booking, or there is more than 1mm of rain (also known as light rain by the weather network) forecasted per hour for any hour inside your rental duration.

E-Bike Pre-order Cancellation

If you ordered a new bike not currently in stock you will be approved for a full refund so long as the order is still in processing, and not yet shipped from the warehouse. Because E-Bike pre-orders are aggregated with other orders to achieve discounted rates for you this processing time will not be on the magnitude of the house but rather on the magnitude of days or weeks.
