ARIUS SORBONNE- Snakestaff Systems The Critical Role of Tourniquets for Safety and Preparedness

Straight Talk - Mind and Muscle Podcast

In this episode I discuss the critical role of tourniquets in emergencies with my guest Arius Sorbonne, co-founder of Snake Staff Systems along with his amazing wife- Jessica. Arius explains the innovative design and functionality of their tourniquet, emphasizing its portability and effectiveness, especially for children.
We stress the significance of emergency preparedness and advocate for carrying tourniquets as part of everyday safety gear to handle unexpected injuries.

Key Features of the Snake Staff Systems' Tourniquet- as seen on the Shawn Ryan Show and featured with Dom Raso of Dynamis Alliance
Compact Design: The tourniquet reduces the overall profile by about 65% by eliminating the sleeve found in traditional models, making it more portable and user-friendly.
Suitable for both Children, Babies, Pets and Adults.. ( most aren’t) .
One-Inch Webbing: The core component responsible for constricting blood flow is a one-inch piece of webbing, which has been effective in saving lives for years.
Carabiner Lock: This feature enhances reliability during patient transport, addressing a common issue with other tourniquets that can become dislodged.
Arius's Family Experience: Arius shared a personal story about a friend who had to apply a tourniquet to his child after a trampoline accident. This real-life example underscores the necessity of having such equipment on hand.
Practical Skills for Kids: We touched on the importance of teaching first aid skills to children. Familiarity with medical supplies can empower kids to act confidently in emergencies.
Everyday Carry (EDC): Many people are now including tourniquets in their EDC, which can be a game-changer in emergencies. Having essential medical supplies on hand can significantly increase survival chances. What First Aid do YOU EDC?

Beyond his work with Snake Staff Systems,
Arius collaborates closely with a range of specialized units, including Special Forces and SWAT teams. His expertise in tactical medical equipment and emergency response protocols makes him a valuable asset to these high-stakes environments.
By working with these elite groups, Arius ensures that the tourniquets and other medical tools developed by Snake Staff Systems meet the rigorous demands of field operations. His partnerships with these units also provide critical feedback that drives continuous improvement and innovation in their products, ultimately enhancing the safety and effectiveness of first responders and military personnel.

Additionally, Arius delves into the craftsmanship behind the custom firearms he manufactures, detailing the precision engineering and rigorous testing each gun undergoes to ensure reliability and safety. He shares insights into the various models they produce, tailored for different needs, from personal defense to professional use, and underscores the importance of responsible gun ownership and proper training.

Arius notes that the messaging around self-defense and medical preparedness can often be polarizing, with some people dismissing the need for such knowledge. However, he believes that framing the conversation around safety and preparedness can help bridge the gap between differing viewpoints. By focusing on universal values like protecting loved ones, they can encourage more people to engage with the concepts of self-defense and emergency medical training.

Final Thoughts:
This episode is a powerful reminder of the importance of being prepared for emergencies. Arius and I shared a mutual understanding of the necessity of carrying reliable medical equipment and being proactive about personal safety. I encourage you to listen to the full episode and consider investing in a quality tourniquet for your safety and the safety of your loved ones.
