Art of Reading Smoke Day 1

Today’s structure fires are more dangerous than ever before.

Lightweight construction, low-mass synthetics, and open space floorplans have created a perfect storm for rapid, prolific fire growth and extreme behavior. It is imperative for firefighters of all ranks and experience levels to be prepared for this new battle. The Art of Reading Smoke, developed by Dave Dodson and continued by Rob Backer, provides the knowledge necessary for first-arriving firefighters. officers, and chiet officers to delermine the fire’s location and progression “from the seal” before seeing any flame. Through the extensive use of actual fireground videos, first-time students will develop, and retum students will refine their knowledge and skills to become INTELLECTUALLY aggressive firefighters, rather than ARBITRARILY aggressive.

North Port Fire Rescue paid to reserve a Venue for this class. We are proud to have them as a partner as we continue to host classes.
