The SKED® Rescue Stretcher System is a compact, versatile patient transport solution trusted by fire departments, rescue squads, military units, and ski patrol teams worldwide. Constructed from a durable heavy-duty plastic sheet, the stretcher becomes rigid when wrapped around the patient, providing secure support during rescue and evacuation operations while remaining compact for storage and transport.

Designed for maximum flexibility, the SKED® can be carried by hand, lifted vertically or horizontally using rope systems or helicopters, or towed across a variety of terrain using its smooth, low-friction bottom surface. The complete system includes all essential lifting and transport components, along with a Cordura® nylon backpack/towing harness for convenient deployment and storage.
