NOT SO EASY IN HEAVY GEAR.

Competitors will start at the base of the three-story Crofton Tower, both feet on the ground, competitors may have one or both hands on the hand rails provided prior to the stair climb. On the sounding of the start horn, the competitor will ascend the stairs to the top of the tower. Competitors may climb more than one step at a time on the way up but they must use the external handrail provided at all times within the marked off areas.

THEY’RE HEAVIER THAN THEY LOOK

Once a competitor has reached the top of the Crofton Tower, they must haul up one length of 70mm delivery hose provided by Angus Fire, this must be hauled over the guard rail provided and then placed into the box provided.

DOWN IS NO EASIER THAN UP.

Upon placing the hose in the box, the competitor must then descend the Crofton Tower to the ground floor, whilst descending the stairs, the competitor must step on every single step and have one hand on the external handrail within the marked off areas.

IT GETS HEAVIER WITH EVERY STEP.

ROLL, LIFT, CARRY, DROP.

Following the hose drag, the competitor will proceed to the hose makeup area where one length of 70mm lay flat delivery hose (provided by Angus Fire) will be rolled out on the floor, the competitor must roll up the hose and once completed, carry it to the box provided and place it inside. The hose must be placed fully inside the box.
