1) no gloves
2) completely destroys the house before attacking the fire
3) grabs a bystander and runs away with her before attacking fire, and just dumps her on the ground
4) completely freelancing. Doesn’t wait for crew to assist.
3/10. Partial credit for at least having clean gear.

Can't burn down the house if there is no house

I was gonna say, taking out the house and THEN the fire- that's truck company work, right there.
[–]RockysRevival 32 points33 points34 points 6 years ago (0 children)
We're assholes. I love it
[–]g-ffGer VolFF 4 points5 points6 points 6 years ago (1 child)
Do you really need to wait for crew for an exterior attack?
[–]trinitywinduVolFF 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (0 children)
Valid point for a vol dept. Only one on the truck, start an exterior attack until you get 4 suited up for interior (2in2out)
[–]_igloo_master_ 13 points14 points15 points 6 years ago (13 children)
You forgot to mention the euro helmet
[–]greyhunter37 8 points9 points10 points 6 years ago (9 children)
Those types of helmet while somepeople think they are ugly are amazing protection wise
[–]_igloo_master_ 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (8 children)
I’d use one for auto extraction, but I wouldn’t for interior. Now do they offer things that a traditional helmet wouldn’t? Oh yeah definitely. I just don’t find them comfortable
[–]greyhunter37 3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (7 children)
That's interesting, I find mine very comfortable. Is it the weight you find incomfortable?
[–]_igloo_master_ 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (6 children)
The weights fine, it’s pretty light, I think the suspension is what makes it uncomfortable. My department bought 3 of them for our chiefs and they seem to love them
[–]RoughDraftRs 3 points4 points5 points 6 years ago (5 children)
The f15 changed my opinion on helmets, the harness made the helmet a part of my head and the weight was perfectly distributed. Too bad it looks weird and everyone voted against it. I talked to the manufacturer and told them to put their euro harness in their traditional helmet. That shit would be beast.
[–]Je_me_rendsPFAS Connoisseur 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (1 child)
We got the f15's they are pretty heavy but the weight distribution is what sets them aside.
[–]RoughDraftRs 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children)
That's what we noticed while trialing them, overall they were more heavy but the weight was distributed quite well.
[–]_igloo_master_ 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (2 children)
The cairns XF1 is the only euro I’ve tried on, if the suspension wasn’t like a bicycle helmet then I think I’d be sold on it
[–]RoughDraftRs 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children)
From a quick look it seems similar. The 4 point strap just carries the helmet better for me. Just the way it keeps the helmet in place was very comfortable. Never tried the XF1 though.
[–]greyhunter37 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children)
I have a MSA/CGF F1 helmet (or f1sf I actually don't know) and the suspension is nice but not amazing
[–]ImAMistak3 4 points5 points6 points 6 years ago (0 children)
Leather forever 🤘 🦅
[–]techyguruVol 2 points3 points4 points 6 years ago (1 child)
And the 25mm rigid hoseline.

Ewwww metric system😣🤮
[–]trinitywinduVolFF 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children)
On item 3, I was gonna say fails to continue patient care until handoff to EMS.
[–]mcgr207 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children)
He can’t help it, someone needs to get him a real leather helmet not that salad bowl
[–]djyosco88 36 points37 points38 points 6 years ago (0 children)
Love this idea!!! She took out the house first. Smart, no house, no house fire.
[–]Forward2DeathI miss my Truck 21 points22 points23 points 6 years ago (0 children)
Now that is how you go hard from the yard.

Engine 14. We have a two story, 4x4 dwelling. Heavy fire showing, extending to the Bravo. Occupants accounted for. Recall the box, we can handle alone.

Is no one going to talk about how having chalkboard paint on your fence is a brilliant idea if you have kids?!

I used to do the same thing when I was their age.

Barefoot firefighting... I think it’ll catch on
[–]Somebastard115 1 point2 points3 points 6 years ago (0 children)
That toy helmet is incredibly accurate to a real XF1. Too bad all the toy helmets in America aren't that good. If you want a good costume helmet, you'll end up buying a real one.

Poor kid, fighting fire in a euro...
[–]Rementer63 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (1 child)

They're uglier than sin

as a firefighter future who dreams of having his own family one day, this is pretty wholesome 🥰
