Firstwatch Backboard Flotation System

Enhanced Stability for Water Rescue Operations
Engineered for emergency response teams, this inflatable flotation collar provides 135 lbs of buoyancy, ensuring essential backboard stability during water-based rescue scenarios. Constructed from the same durable materials used in FirstWatch USCG inflatable life jackets, it withstands harsh marine conditions while keeping the patient securely above water. The collar attaches using 8 robust hook and loop straps that evenly distribute tension across any standard backboard, creating a stable platform during extractions.

Compact, Deployable, and Ready for Action
2 manual 60g rearming packs deliver an additional 80 lbs of buoyancy, enhancing support for critical operations. The collar includes side grab handles for precise handling and quick-release connection loops that allow fast detachment from the backboard when necessary. When deflated, the system folds for easy storage and transport, ensuring rapid deployment when every second counts. Designed to be compact and field-ready, it supports swift and safe patient recovery in challenging aquatic conditions.
