Nice shots. My department is sending me to a FAST1 (Flood and Swiftwater Tech 1) course starting tomorrow. It's in central TX in the summer, so wetsuits are only optional (and not recommended).
It was all pretty good except for the wading where a wader was facing downstream. Foot entrapment more likely but mainly because just more difficult to keep balanced. Looks like a good good group

Nice. a little like a refresher, almost. Going to get the real refresher this summer. Thanks

I need to take a course like this badly... Holy shit this looks so useful
Look into Instructors using the Crossline Reach.

30 years ago i had my first swiftwater rescue training. Although it was very useful it was far from this prefessional instructions. 👍👍👍
