Water safety is relevant all year round, regardless of the weather. Drowning accidents don't just happen in the warm water of summer, but also when the water hits zero.
On buoyancy, safety and speed, LifeBoard provides a better rescue and prevents more drowning accidents.
It can often be difficult to assess whether the ice can support you, and if you do venture out onto the ice, there may be several reasons why the ice cannot support you.
Falling through the ice and hitting the cold water can be life-threatening, and the thin ice can make it extremely difficult to perform a rescue operation. That's why we developed the LifeBoard Ice Kit, where you can help the victim from a safe distance and from land or solid ice. The Ice Kit is designed for ice rescues.
Safety is always the first priority. The safety of both the victim and the rescuer. Our rescue equipment is specifically designed for ice-related accidents, increasing the safety of both the civilian rescuer and the victim.
The ice kit add-on on the LifeBoard is designed and created by the same people, making safety the first priority.
Vi har skabt et flydemiddel, som også fungerer til is-redninger. På denne måde bidrager vi til den civile sikkerhed, og hvis uheldet er ude uden for livreddersæson, er der dermed stadig brugbart redningsudstyr tilgængeligt for civile.
Vi har derfor tilpasset boardet til is-redninger og har bl.a. implementeret:
1. Simple instruktioner til en sikker redning på is
2. Sikkerhedstrop med issyle til egen sikkerhed
3. 100 m sikkerhedsline monteret på LifeBoard, der enten kan gives til en redder på land ellers monteret på stander
Med is-kittet som tilføjelse til LifeBoard har du altså effektivt redningsudstyr gennem hele året uanset vind-, vejr- eller vandforhold.
Watch Sofus illustrate how the LifeBoard Ice Kit works
Hear why Jonas from Uddevalla Municipality in Sweden chose LifeBoard
A sealed vinyl bag with instructions, safety strap, ice axe and 100 m safety line
to perform a safe rescue with LifeBoard without prior training
for civilians. Simply pull the safety strap to reveal the contents
on safety strap for personal safety for the civilian rescuer
If there are several people, the safety line bag can be given to someone on shore who can then pull the rescuer and rescued person ashore
LifeBoard is used to distribute weight when moving towards the person in distress
Push the LifeBoard over the ice to keep distance from the unsafe ice. The LifeBoard can slide the last 10 m to the emergency site while the safety line is attached
Pull person gently out of the water and then onto land
Watch a test of the LifeBoard ice kit in collaboration with Oslo Sjöskole
In collaboration with Oslo Sjöskole, we have introduced LifeBoard with ice kits for future training of more than 7000 children per year to save themselves and others in open water.
We are always available and can be contacted for non-binding guidance on rescue equipment, swimming safety, demonstration, cooperation, training and events with associations. Or whatever is on your mind!
We would love to hear from you, whether you are a citizen, lifeguard or from an association or municipality.
