When Saving Lives shouldn't be hard and Seconds can mean the difference between Life and Death! In emergency situations, fast response can be critical to victim recovery. Winter conditions along with broken ice and slushy open water multiply the effort required to reach the victim in a timely manner. Hypothermia can happen in minutes! Current manual rescue methods are effective if the location of
the victim is known and close to shore, but what if the location is unknown or several hundred yards or more off shore, beyond where tether systems can comfortably reach? WISE Technology has tackled this dilemma by producing an amphibious vehicle specifically for this environment. The AIR (Amphibious Ice Rescue) Responder is designed to handle any ice condition. With its unique patent pending hull and its incredibly low center of gravity, the AIR Responder easily moves from one surface to another with safety and surety. Whether the surface is ice, broken ice, slushy ice, snow, open water or a combination of these, the Responder handles it with confidence. WISE Technology’s AIR Responder is the first of its kind, designed specifically for ice rescue. The low center of gravity and foam filled hull make the Responder incredibly stable and essentially unsinkable. The flat deck of almost 35 square feet, the very low freeboard of mere inches along with the integrated edge rollers makes victim recovery simple and quick. With the AIR Responder a rescuer can safely reach, recover, and return a victim to shore before other systems are deployed! The Responder is powered by an unmodified, well understood, easily controlled snowmobile. There is no mystery, no steep learning curve. It performs and handles the way your experience expects.
