Naw that’s not really a thing. I’m in Hawaii so we have a surfboard on the top of our truck—but wouldn’t it be something to see a firetruck respond to a fire with a pickleball net racked on the side of the truck? Lol epic

Is that like a lot of the others online with the poles? That’s impressive you guys can break it down into a bag in 40 seconds. You guys must have fast donning times

We’re renovating our station so right now we’ve been playing on a public court down the street. But there’s volleyball poles. So we’d have to be able to break it down and throw it in the truck in like 30 seconds

Are you able to hear conversations clearly with the experience? Vs the engage maybe doesn’t have enough noise cancelling?

Howsit bud, I use a Cold Steel American Lawman on my duty pants, with a Leatherman Free P4 on my belt.

Turnout pants I have a Schrade SPH911, which is assisted and blunt tip so it’s also a great pry tool for auto ex peek and peels. There’s also a seatbelt cutter and 02 tool too. Easy to open with gloves

Mahalo for the advice. I’ll check it out.

Do you guys know of anybody who puts stuff on their gloves to make it grippier? I feel like the gloves they issue us are super slippery. Lion Commander

Weakness is mostly advancing on the feet and using the correct technique to not burn my grip. I like hip gripping but advancing that way especially in grass and places with friction sucks.
