đźš’ Session 1: Hose Draggers
An Engine Company Course for Those Who Do the Work
This isn’t a probie class. It’s for any firefighter—any rank—who wants to sharpen engine company skills and be more effective on the nozzle, at the door, and at the seat of the fire. We don’t teach dragging hose—we teach moving with intent.
You’ll train on:
âś… Solo hoseline deployments in under 10 seconds
âś… Advancing and flowing water with limited staffing
âś… Smart nozzle control and water placement
âś… Getting to the seat of the fire in under 2 minutes
âś… Extinguishment using less than 500 gallons of tank water
✅ Operating efficiently so you don’t feel the heat—because the fire is being controlled
🧰 Gear Required: Structural firefighting gear (no SCBA required)

🔥 Session 2: Max Fire Box Phase I & II – Burn & Learn
Fire Behavior & Thermal Imaging

You’ll learn to:
âś… Understand fire behavior and how it impacts tactics
âś… Read thermal imaging for real-time decision-making
âś… Simulate fire scenarios and assess conditions with a TIC
âś… Build confidence with your own camera during active fire training
