Commercial fire footage with a great opportunity for roundtable discussions. For example, would you still complete a primary search as a priority at this incident given what you see in the footage? Please justify why, or why not. Credit: mercedfiredept #flashpointequipment

Even when you expect it’s coming, there is still a little surprise. Great training with the group at Brockton FD as they went through two days of theory and hands on training with their new vertical fire dynamics training prop. #flashpointequipment #flowpath

Water wins in most cases. Whether you place it in the open window and/or use it to cool the hot gases exiting overhead, water will cool the conditions and help prevent a negative event. Isn’t that the goal? Video Credit: Richland Township #flashpointequipment

Unencumbered by the need to wear SCBA or stay back from the smoke, these candidates in a recent Train-the-Trainer discussed the next steps and tested their beliefs. What a great way to learn. #flashpointequipment #firedepartment #flowpath #firebehavior #FireEducation

Is this a volume problem, an application problem, or both? Note the rebound time before flames are back in the lower apartment. What adjustments would you make to this fire attack? Share your thoughts in the comments! Credit: unknown. #flashpointequipment

Roanoke FD truck searching ahead of the line. a) What guidelines does your department have for searching ahead of the line? Anytime? Multi-residential only? b) Do you implement interior door control to manage fire growth and smoke spread while searching ahead of the line?

Different departments (regions) use different tactics for the same challenges. Would your department head in the front, go around the side, or do both when attacking this fire? Credit: gptxfire Follow Us X/TWITTER Flashpoint Equipment #flashpointequipment #firebehavior #FireEducation

Backdraft or smoke explosion? This event occurred just as Truck 1 completed its ventilation hole. Flames were forced downward and out of the attic hatch, which led to a partial collapse in two rooms at the rear of the house. Credit: santarosafirefighters #flashpointequipment
