The FAST Rescue Board is the ultimate rescue platform designed for maximum versatility and ease of use
Configured with industry standard webbing and hardware, the innovative rapid packaging features will have your patient packaged and moving in seconds!
The national average time for removing a firefighter from a subsurface area when they have become incapacitated is 18 - 25 minutes, utilizing 3 to 5 teams of 4 or 5 members. With the FAST Board and proper training, we have reduced that time to 2 ½ to 3 minutes with one team of 3 members.
- The single point connection will accommodate air packs — “One Click, One Pull”
- The lashing system is an integrated 4-point Kevlar harness
- The haul system is integrated with the lashing system, allowing users to go from a horizontal drag to a vertical lift or lower without changing the Board’s configuration or additional lashing
- The 45” length is designed intentionally to utilize the natural bend in the body (hips & knees) to facilitate maneuverability and patient packaging options during extrication, combating snags, reducing friction, and ideal for confined space rescue
- Forty-five-degree side-rail undercuts allow rescuers to “tip” the Board, creating a slim profile to execute low radius turns and reduce patient profile to 13.5”. Side-rail undercuts also assist in combating roll-overs.
- The Board’s 11” bottom (or running surface) is designed to fit inside the beams of a ladder and reduces friction while moving patient or equipment.
- A modular design allows individual components to be removed, replaced, or decontaminated
- Accessories are available for ice & water rescue, Hazmat, Industrial, and Tactical applications
