Steps to strap up:  1. Start with anchors – make sure they're not too tight  2. Add stirrups, covering the malleoli (behind, over, and in front). Use as much or little tape as needed for your ankle.  3. Apply '6ixs' in both directions for solid support.  4. Use heel locks as needed – one, two, or none, depending on your stability requirements.  5. Lock it off, ensuring anchors aren't too tight.
