Every guest at a Launch Trampoline Park has to sign the Launch Trampoline Park waiver — formally the “Assumption of Risk, Waiver of Liability, and Indemnification Agreement” — before setting foot on any attraction. You can complete it online at launchfamilyentertainment.com before you leave the house, or fill it in at a touchscreen kiosk near the front entrance when you arrive. Doing it in advance saves meaningful time at check-in, especially with a group of kids.
What to Have Ready
Before you open the form, gather the following for every person in your party who plans to jump, climb, or play:
- Full legal name and date of birth for each participant.
- Home address and phone number.
- An email address, which is where your confirmation and a PDF copy of the signed waiver will be sent.
- The name and phone number of an emergency contact who is not in your party.
If you’re filling out the form for anyone under eighteen, you’ll also enter your own full name and your relationship to the child. One adult waiver can cover multiple minors, so a parent can add all their kids on a single form. Have each child’s exact birth date ready, because the system uses it to determine access to age-restricted zones like Toddler Time (ages five and under) and IGNITE (ages thirteen and up).1Launch Entertainment.

Where to Sign It
Online Before You Go
The fastest option is the digital waiver on Launch’s website. Pull up your specific location’s page and follow the waiver link.2Launch Entertainment. Launch Location Finder The form walks through each section in order and flags blank fields before it lets you submit. When you finish, a confirmation email with a PDF copy lands in your inbox.
At a Kiosk on Arrival
If you skip the online step, touchscreen kiosks near the entrance run the same form on a larger screen. Plan on five to ten minutes per participant, and more if the park is busy and the kiosks have a line. For birthday parties and larger groups, filling out waivers online beforehand is worth the effort.
What the Four Sections Commit You To
The waiver has four acknowledgments you must read and initial before you can sign. Skipping any one of them stops submission.3egrecreation.recdesk.com. Launch Trampoline Park Assumption of Risk, Waiver of Liability, and Indemnification Agreement
Assumption of Risk
You acknowledge that trampolines, obstacle courses, dodgeball, and similar activities carry inherent physical risks, including the possibility of serious injury, and that your participation is voluntary. The language covers both “known and unanticipated” hazards.
Release, Waiver, and Indemnification
This is the core liability section. You release Launch and its employees from claims arising from ordinary negligence, and you agree to indemnify the facility if you or your minor brings a claim. Two provisions in this section matter well after you’ve signed: a binding arbitration clause that sends any dispute to an arbitrator rather than a courtroom, and a one-year window from the date of signing to raise that dispute.3egrecreation.recdesk.com. Launch Trampoline Park Assumption of Risk, Waiver of Liability, and Indemnification Agreement
Rules and Certification
By initialing here you confirm that you (or your child) are physically and emotionally able to participate, that you’ve read the posted rules, and that you’ll report any injury to staff before leaving the park, no matter how minor. This section also contains a media release giving Launch permission to photograph or record you for promotional use. The initial is not optional. If you don’t want to agree to the media release, the waiver won’t process.
Attraction-Specific Acknowledgments
Some attractions carry their own extra acknowledgments. The XP Arena, for example, requires you to confirm you’ve watched the full safety video before you can tag in. These appear either during the waiver flow or at the attraction itself, depending on the location.3egrecreation.recdesk.com.

Signing for Your Kids
To sign for anyone under eighteen, you must be the child’s parent or legal guardian. The form asks for your name, your relationship to the minor, and your acknowledgment that you are binding the child to the same assumption-of-risk and release terms you’ve accepted for yourself. Multiple children go on a single adult’s waiver.
One thing the form itself doesn’t say: in most states, courts have held that a parent cannot waive a minor’s own right to sue for negligence. The majority rule treats these parental waivers as unenforceable against the child’s independent future claims, though some states carve out exceptions for nonprofit or community-sponsored activities. Your child may retain legal rights regardless of your signature, but Launch still requires the signed waiver as a condition of entry.
How Long It Lasts and What to Bring
A completed waiver stays valid for 365 days from the date you signed it.4Launch Pad Trampoline Park. Waivers If you return within that window, you skip the form and go straight to check-in. After a year, you fill out a new one. The system keeps your profile, so repeat visits are quick.
At check-in, give your name at the desk and staff will pull up your waiver to confirm it’s complete and active. Some locations generate a QR code you can scan. Once you’re verified, you can buy jump time or an activity pass.
Every participant also needs grip socks — the rubberized-sole kind — before stepping onto a trampoline. You can bring a pair from a previous visit or buy them at the park, where Launch-branded grip socks have typically run around $3.50 per pair. Regular socks and bare feet are not permitted on trampoline attractions.
What the Waiver Covers, and What It Doesn’t
The release covers ordinary negligence: the bumps, falls, and collisions that are part of bouncing on trampolines and running obstacle courses. Courts generally uphold this kind of exculpatory agreement when the language is clear, the risks are inherent to the activity, and the participant had a real opportunity to read the terms before signing.5Cornell Law Institute. Assumption of Risk
What the waiver does not shield is gross negligence, a higher standard involving reckless disregard for safety. Ignoring a known equipment problem, allowing dangerous overcrowding, or failing to train supervising staff falls outside the release. The duty to keep the equipment in reasonably safe condition survives any signature you’ve given.
Enforceability also varies by state. Every state requires clear, unambiguous language, and most read the waiver strictly against the business relying on it. Vague terms or key provisions buried in dense legalese are the kinds of problems that get waivers thrown out. On top of that, the binding arbitration clause means that even a valid claim goes to an arbitrator rather than a court, and you’ve agreed to raise it within one year.3egrecreation.recdesk.com.

Rules You’ve Agreed to Follow
Signing the waiver commits you to the park’s posted rules. At Launch that typically means no double-bouncing, no flips without staff approval, and respecting capacity limits on individual trampoline beds. Specific rules vary by location and attraction, and signage near each attraction spells out capacity, age restrictions, and prohibited maneuvers.
Aggressive behavior, fighting, bullying, and harassment are grounds for immediate removal. The waiver’s acknowledgment that all sales are final means a removal does not get you a refund. Staff can pull anyone off an attraction for unsafe conduct, and repeated violations can lead to a permanent ban.
The injury-reporting clause is the one people most often overlook. If your child tweaks an ankle on the ninja course and you just head home, you may have undermined any later claim by failing to create an incident record. Tell staff about every injury before leaving, even the ones that look minor at the time.
