An Ottoman bridge, a cold river, cover for every leap

Cold shock and impact in the Neretva, care up to €150,000

Dropping around twenty metres into a river far colder than the summer air brings cold shock, shoulder dislocations and spinal trauma. Medical costs up to €150,000 cover emergency care, scans, surgery and hospital stays in Bosnia and Herzegovina, whatever your country of residence.

icon Transport et rapatriement

Off the rocky riverbank and all the way home

Getting out after a hard impact means climbing the rocky banks of the Neretva, then reaching a hospital in a country where you may not speak the language. Assistance and repatriation at actual cost handle the evacuation from the accident site and your return home.

icon Option compétition

Mostar and the whole season under the Competition option

Mostar is an official stop on the world high diving circuit, and every judged dive counts towards the standings. The Competition option covers you on the Old Bridge, at the other stops of the series and in every official competition of your season, training included.

icon Capital invalidité

A spine that never quite recovers, up to €200,000

A rotation that is not fully closed before entry can compress vertebrae or injure the neck, with effects that last far beyond the season. Permanent disability capital up to €200,000 is paid when the after-effects are permanent, to adapt your daily life or fund a career change.

Current, cold water and summer heat, the traps of Mostar

In Mostar you go from baking heat on the bridge to much colder river water in an instant. The Neretva's current, a depth that shifts with the water level and a crowd standing almost close enough to touch all add pressure. The slightest hesitation on take-off gets paid for on entry.

Away from the big stops you train in pools, off cliffs or from bridges, often a long way from any first-aid post. Individual accident high diving insurance covers you all year, in training and in competition, at home and abroad, whatever your country of residence.
