Facilitated by Nicole Brugger

Often, nozzle work is an overlooked skill as a firefighter. We are simply given the nozzle and told GO! When the nozzle reaction is challenging, we are told this is the way it is. In this course, you will gain confidence and core strength through owing out of 45mm and 65mm nozzles and acting as a back-up person. You will start with 3 basic positions on your left and right sides, and we will increase the difficulty through repetition and proper techniques until you can ow and move with ease. This course is designed for beginners or seasoned firefighters. We tailor to you. Last year, we had 100% success rate with our participants!
