They wanted Rescue, so they GOT Rescue!!
Please welcome the latest Rescue Class, who picked a beautiful weekend at Clear Springs Scuba Park to complete their class scenarios.

Say howdy to the Sunny Seven!

Apparently I'm pretty heavy dead weight!! I'm just glad my lost mask was found, and that I wasn't dropped while on the backboard!!

Also, sitting on the bottom, tied up to a rock for 30 mins is really really boring!!

I don't understand; I had loads of fun tying you to those rocks!

Did you find it less boring once you were out of the burlap sack?

Oh, is that what that was? By the way, please tell me how a burlap sack is used in underwater "surveying"??

What rescue class uses a backboard? We never saw one during my class.

Not when I took Rescue from ST in July 07. I wished we had one to practice with, though. I also acted as a victim for the August 07 and September 07 classes. None there either.

Do you mind if I ask what you are using it for. Removing victims from the water. Deep, shallow, spinal injures. I am very interested in how you use it and how you teach with it.

I was at one time a lifeguard and LG instructor and like to learn new ideas when it comes to water rescue.

That's simple...there wasn't one available at the time you did rescue.

We had the opportunity to borrow one and use it to advantage.

The same way that an entire rescue class misses out on a long yellow rope being carried mysteriously into the water.
