Traditional spine boards are cumbersome for water rescue.

They require multiple people to handle and extensive, continuous training to remain proficient for using during a water rescue. That’s why we designed the Rapid Extrication Board™. It's intuitive to use which makes training with it easier and faster. Also designed for the worst case scenario designed, to be used by just one person to extricate a victim.​​

features

Compact

The only rescue board that folds up to the size of a brief case so it can be stored in space limited areas such as small boats.

“Neutral” buoyancy​

Weighted to be “neutral” in the water, which is much easier to work with than traditional backboards, which are extremely buoyant.​

Color-coded straps

Straps are color coded to help the rescuer quickly identify which strap goes where and the straps are packed so they are easy to find.

Slide over rough or uneven surfaces

Wheels on the base of the board make transportation easier. They’re housed in skis that smooth the lifting process out of the water.​

More space to grip

Wide handles give you more room for more people to lend a hand in the extrication effort.​
