Where firefighters come to talk training

Hose Handling Drills

Here is a short video that you can use to supplement your training for hose handling. This seems like really simple stuff, but, it is performed wrong frequently.

Take the time to go over these techniques with your crew. If you cannot handle the hose, you will have difficulties getting the “wet stuff on the hot stuff” because you are fighting the hose line.

Take care and train hard.

Good stuff as usual Bro! Unfortunately we don't do this enough, but it's a good time of the year for it.

Stay Safe
