As an extra safety precaution, Inflato Stoke Interactive Air Park operates a ‘Sin Bin’ system.
Should anyone be doing any of the above which DOESN’T require immediate removal from the inflatable but just a caution they will be told to exit the inflatable for 5 minutes, given the reason why by one of our Arena Supervisors and asked to re-watch our Safety Video Briefing again.After the time has expired they will be allowed back onto the inflatable Air Park.
Should they be caught in a second incident they will be given their final warning and told to leave the inflatable Air Park for 10 minutes, again given the reason for their removal and asked to re-watch our Safety Video Briefing again.

Should they be caught a 3rd time they will be told to leave the inflatable Air Park immediately, be given the reasons as to why and will NOT be allowed back onto that or any other session that day.
The above system is in place for the safety and wellbeing of our patrons. It is not there to be abused by any customer.
Should any of our Arena Supervisors feel that the behaviour warrants immediate removal WITHOUT using the full Sin Bin System, Stoke Interactive Air Park reserves the right to do so.
No monetary refund or compensation will be given for anyone that has been subject to the Sin Bin system.
The Arena Supervisors word is final on any inappropriate behaviour or bouncing.
