CSFA Nor Cal Training Academy Classes “Irons Ready” – an interactive truck ops class Thursday, January 25 OR Friday, January 26 - 8am to 8pm AND Live Fire Day Saturday, January 27 8am to 8pm Location: Woodland Fire Department, Station 3, 1515 Springlake Court. Principal Instructor: Cody Trestrail and Brothers in Battle training cadre Class description: Many say they are the keys to the city, but this is only if you understand how to maximize the designed mechanical advantage, leverage and force of these tools. Once you do, you can problem solve and work through many common fireground forcible entry challenges and know when and how to change things up and think or work outside the box to get the job done. This class is all about Irons work and it’s so much more than access, it’s addressing the main paths of egress! Upon completion of this course firefighters will be able to dress and set up their tools for success, perform a rapid size up to identify and defeat multiple forcible entry challenges, perform initial interior size up, account for door control, effectively use commands to enhance communication, develop good striking techniques, and perform the appropriate standardized techniques while working alone or as part of a team. Seconds do count, we will be able to mask up quickly, make the force and make the grab, NOT EXCUSES! To effectively mitigate a high stress, unpredictable event, we must be able to communicate to all rescue members our intent and predict each other’s actions based on standardized training and techniques. SKILLS & TOPICS: We will be masking up, forcing doors and making grabs all day! ● 1 & 2 FF Inward opening doors ● 1 & 2 FF Outward opening doors ● Limited access / dead end hallways ● Bottom of the stairs ● Limited / Zero visibility forcible entry About the instructor: Cody started his Fire Service career in 1995 at a small combination department in WA State.
