When every second counts, the Skedco Sked Basic Rescue System is the rugged, lightweight solution rescue teams trust.
When the patient is packaged, the stretcher becomes rigid. The durable plastic provides protection for the patient while allowing extrication through the most demanding confined spaces. The stretcher is rolled for storage in a tough Cordura backpack which is included with the system. The system ships at 19 lbs. and comes complete for most applications. This system includes the Sked Stretcher, a Cordura backpack, horizontal lift slings (pair), the Sked tow strap, removable webbing handles, a steel locking “D” carabiner, and the Sked vertical lift sling.
