To learn and practice a breathing techniques and increase mobility in their suits, the STFD crew suited up in full turnout gear for a friendly game of dodgeball at Douglas Elementary School. The gear and an air pack adds nearly 100 pounds of weight to each firefighter. When you combine the added weight with the adrenaline of being in a live fire situation, it is easy to use up an air tank too quickly. The air management techniques help the firefighters maximize their air tank usage.... and they had a little fun too! |
