Sit on the floor, they place a box at your feet, and you need to move the slide rule as far as you can past your feet, so if people think they can touch their toes...you need to go further....apparently good flexibility will prevent back injuries in the job of ARFF :-o

I completed this test last year at Darwin...didn't pass the sit and reach, but got through all the other activities with out a problem, don't get worked up over the hose drag and hold...it's only a 50mm hose, don't over complicate the matter or stress about it...on the day you'll get so pumped on adrenaline it will be over before you know it...Good luck

No real tips for testing, but when you get to the physical make sure you can touch your toes -sit and reach....I got through everything but that, and by not being able to touch toes or go past it was bye bye...try again next year...so get stretching  :-P
