This past week our members along with members of Fairview and Greenville FD’s participated in our monthly technical rescue training

Members trained on the use of our rigging equipment -grip-hoists, wire rope, chains, shackles, slings, and binders. Members did controlled flips and righting of vehicles. The training also covered Paratech strut use for stabilizing and lifting. Vehicles were ultimately placed on top of each other to create a rescue scenario. Members stabilized the vehicles to eliminate movement. The upper car was then lifted with hydra fusion struts in order to preform a dual dash roll in the event both occupants were trapped. The drill allowed the use of both technical and basic skills.
