Justin_M17 Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Very impressive. There's no way I would recognize a "Drowning child" that fast with that wave pool being as full as it is when I go there. Hats off to the lifeguards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Those VAT tests (Vigilance Awareness Tests) are part of Ellis and Associates certification process. The parks that use Ellis and Associates to train and certify their lifeguards are required to do a certain amount of VAT tests a week. Besides Kings Island, Cedar Point, Coney Island and Disney all use Ellis and Associates to train and certify their lifeguards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
