Weekly Warm-Up: Glove Application Part IV

This time we're doubling the distance.

In Part Four of our ongoing series on glove application, Pete DeQuincy challenges your team to double last week’s distance from 30 to 60 feet. Again, the challenge here is to look forward while removing gloves from hip pack and putting them on. As you’ll see in the video, several participants stare at their hands while completing this timed drill. That’s dangerous. Ultimately, you want lifeguards to put on gloves without delaying care to the victim. For best results, look ahead.
