PROGRESSIVE LINE


 

Equipment Needed:      3 - 50’ lengths of 1 1/2” hose
                                        
1 - 1 1/2”  nozzle
                                        
1 - 1 1/2” to 1 1/2” gated wye
                                         1 - 50’ length 2 1/2” hose 

Fire Gear Needed:        Boots and Helmet 

Number of People:       Five (5) 

Object:    To connect three (3) sections of 1 1/2” hose together and apply a 1 1/2” nozzle and knock over a series of targets with a water stream in a progressive manner. 

At a starting point, team members will advance 30 feet.  At the 30 foot line, there will be three (3) sections of 1 1/2” hose and a 1 1/2” nozzle placed on the ground (hose will be rolled in a storage type roll - male coupling inside).  At this point, one (1) section of 1 1/2” hose must be unrolled and connected to a gated wye which is pre-connected to a 2 1/2” hose being supplied by an engine with 100 PSI ENGINE PRESSURE.  The nozzle will then be applied and a target will be knocked over by a water stream from the first section.  The water must then be turned off at the wye and the second section of 1 1/2” hose connected and the nozzle reapplied and a second target knocked over.  Repeat the previous sentence and connect the third section of 1 1/2” hose and knock over a third target.  Time will end when the nozzle person knocks over the last target with water stream and target touches ground.  

Note:    No foul line
