FAST Board w/ AWOGS
The Next Evolution in Rescue Boards
The FAST Board was designed by Eric Allen, a 20 year veteran of the fire service, with the last 12 years spent in the special operations community. The primary purpose of the FAST Board is to have all the equipment attached and rigged for use to effectively load, secure, and move downed personnel and civilians from below grade and confined spaces during emergency evacuation.
