OPINION

RICKHOFF, Justice.

At issue in this wrongful death and survival action is the effectiveness of a pre-injury liability release. The case arises from the death of Jean Hunter Newman on May 6, 1990, during completion of a scuba certification course at Lake Travis. Appellants, Ab-ney Lee Newman, individually, and James Daniel Newman, individually and as the executor of the estate of Jean Hunter Newman, appeal a summary judgment rendered in favor of appellees, Tropical Visions, Inc., d/b/a Tropical Divers, and Bob Lake. We affirm the judgment in part, and reverse and remand it in part.
