Don’t be fooled: Moving water is an extremely powerful force
that is often underestimated, even by fire service professionals. Only six
inches of rapidly flowing water can sweep a person off his or her feet; just
one to two feet of water can take lives; and two feet can carry off a vehicle –
look no further than the recent flooding and subsequent, water-based rescues
last week in San Antonio, Texas, for evidence of that.
Known for their intuitive solutions, devotion to providing
professional, military, and recreational users with the industry’s
most-innovative products for marine flotation and climate protection, Mustang
Survival strives to bolster performance, encourage exploration, and inspire
adventure in the marine environment. Ideal for personal suit-issue protocols,
the new Sentinel
Series Water Rescue Dry Suit with Adjustable Neck Seal is perfect for
floods, swift water, and ice-rescue situations. Here’s why:
Tested and validated by water-rescue professionals, the
Coast Guard, and other military-rescue operations, the waterproof, breathable
Mustang Survival Sentinel Series Water Rescue Dry Suit with Adjustable Neck
Seal features reduced bulk and an increased range of motion, thereby enabling
it to excel in the most-demanding, water-rescue environments. Its enhanced
features offer specific advantages that are credited to protecting rescuers in
severe, unpredictable environments:
Constructed of impermeable, breathable GORE-TEX® dry-suit
fabric, its reinforced ankle overcuffs with side zippers can be donned over
boots and Velcro® closures to ensure maximum adjustability. Use its two-point,
attachment-removable suspender system to ensure you get an improved fit,
augmented mobility, and excellent comfort.
Need to make small repairs to the suit? Simply employ the
use of the Mustang Survival Sentinel Series Water Rescue Dry Suit with
Adjustable Neck Seal’s Rapid Repair Technology to replace neck and wrist seals
or to fix small leaks. Additionally, reinforced, molded-foam elbow and knee
pads provide stalwart protection to these sensitive areas, while SOLAS
retro-reflective tape on the suit’s arms give increased visibility – an extra
safeguard when light is scarce.
