Most of our courses use the FIST® suit for our dynamic
simulations. Dynamic simulations are when we put the officer(s)
through a scenario and they use their judgment, training,
team work and communication techniques to safely take control
of the situation. The simulations place the officer(s) in
a stressful situation, duplicating the emotional, physical
and mental stress that they will encounter.
The FIST® suit model that is used is the 333 Suit. This
is the only suit on the market that provides three layers
of protection. This suit can take full impact strikes. By
having three layers and each a different density and hardness,
the shock of the impact is disbursed throughout the area.
There is no direct impact to the person wearing the suit.
There is still pressure felt by the person in the suit and
this allows the wearer to give accurate feed back about the
officer’s technique. The simulations are conducted with
certified staff and safety monitors to ensure safety.
The officer is able to dynamically apply their techniques
with full impact. The trainers are able to observe the officer’s
technique and tactics. It could also be determined if the
officer would demonstrate excessive use of force or be too
timid in a situation that could lead to escalation in force.
By recognizing these traits during training, the chance for
any civil or criminal litigation can be reduced.
Participants during our self-defense course use the suit
to control their fears while they are in a confrontation.
By placing them in a stressful environment they see the necessity
of only using techniques that are simple yet effective. Participants
also gain confidence and respect for their own potential.
These dynamic simulations have been successfully used for
training in the law enforcement, corrections, health care,
SWAT/ETF, executive protection and security industry.
