    Hello Fellow Canadians, just joined.
    I didn't realize we had our own forum on here, my bad I guess.
    Just wanted to tell you all that the Calgary Fire Department & Alberta Vehicle Extrication Association will be hosting the 26th Annual North American Vehicle Rescue Challenge September 19th-25th 2010.this will include a two day Big Rig Rescue Symposium, two day trade show and training sessions and four days of extrication challenge. I have an "alternate team" opportunity to fill spots if a qualifing team cannot attend the challenge.

    Thanks

    Hey Bruno were looking at getting the GUT BELT. However we have talked about going to the new GLOBE gear with the intergrated harness. But as of now we wear the old school ladder belts.
