[multifootballmania]

waste of tape, waste of time, what's the point?

[Bizzee247]

wow...that's a lot of tape being used. there is a much easier way to do this. I'm sure this way is one of the many ways to do a tape job, it's just that it's a lot of tape.

[andersoncity]

goes against what the directions of my ankle wrap suggest, got at the dr office, but, its not working so maybe she's right

[christhebrit]

horrible job

[christhebrit]

horrible job

[sugarbabies3]

in my intro to athletic training class,we always do the heel locks before the figure eights. does it matter what order you do them in?

[joopyness]

shes so efficient barley uses any tape

[yurimontemar]

what the hell are you doing? are trying to cast this ankle? wrong wrong wrong

[lalehm17]

and you dont want the heel covered

[caliescali508]

se le va a poner morado jajajaja wow

[lalehm17]

this is horrible.really you dont do continuous strips when going down.thats way too tight and not very profession when she said end before you hit right there.wow garbage.

[deathcoder]

Geez, tha tmight work for many sports, but if I do that for soccer, then good luck to me dribbling the ball!! LOL

[sierrawroe908]

It seems really tight.

[futureNBAplaya23]

do you half to put cloth wrap?

thanks!

[TheVacaproductions11]

No offense but i see this to be a huge waste of time.

[WorldOfSnakes]

There are many ankle taping videos on youtube but they're all different techniques...what's the difference between them please?

[acenspades]

can you tape up penises?

[Gramosdervisholli]

can u actually play a game after all that tape>????

AND WATS THE TAPE CALLED>???

[BBonell]

that's like $10 in tape every time you do that haha

[joske672]

nice video thank you!

[MultiPlacencia]

I guarantee most people wont want their heel covered no ventilation

[rico4741]

Just normal athletic tape you get it any where

[lavatianflail]

wut kind of tape is this?

[speedz05]

taping itself is a subjective facet of physical therapy, there's many diff techniques used for comfort if the athlete is comfortable with the taping thats the main concern, as scientifically there's no proof that taping an unstable ankle gives adequate support half the time its a mental thing for the athlete. What research has shown is that as the athlete starts playing the tension on the tape lessens due to sweat & friction therefore only useful in the 1st 5-10mins of activity.

[505050jose]

yes very well fandango

[theman1819]

@speedz05 what about when you tape the outside of the shoe, your less luckly to roll or twist or ankle, or if someone kicks it, its going to do less damage...

[Yondaime3490]

@theman1819 why the hell would you tape the outside of your shoe?^^ youd lose a lot of grip, and i dont think the tape would stick to the shoe anyway. and even if it did, the shoe has a completely different form (the foot is rounded, the shoe has edges) and i dont think it would support your ankle at all.

and since its kinda thin, it offers no protection from kicks.

[theman1819]

@Yondaime3490 its not that uncommon to tape the outside of the shoe, it helps with ankle support and helps prevent rolling your ankle

[Yondaime3490]

@theman1819 never seen it before, but you may be right. tho i guess taping the ankle, not the outside of the shoe, supports the ankle better

[theman1819]

@Yondaime3490 its more superstitius than anything, a lot of nfl players do it

[Yondaime3490]

@speedz05 youre probably right - i use tape for my knees all the time (badminton). today, i thought i'd try without - and instantly, i felt uneasy, and even a slight pain sometimes. the moment i applied tape, it simply vanished :D must be a mental thing. no tape in the world is that good^^

[MikeRul3s]

hahahahhaha nice 1 i was about to say that.

[Ganellon]

Simply put, this is the WRONG way to tape an ankle. I don't know who this person is, but she is incorrect in her technique.

[pinkfishylovessocer]

@Ganellon there are over a 100 diffrent ways to tape an ankle everyone tapes diffrent

[Ganellon]

@pinkfishylovessocer You are correct. There are 100 different ways to tape an ankle, but they fall into two distinct categories: correct (one way) and incorrect (the other 99). This video demonstrates a technique that belongs in the "incorrect" category.

[kmack4427]

@Ganellon there are about a million ways to tape someone just because you learned something different doesnt mean that everything else is wrong

[Ganellon]

@kmack4427 There are also countless ways to punctuate. I'm not picking on your grammar, but using it as an example of your flawed reasoning. While your technique enabled you to communicate your point, it would be widely regarded as incorrect, imprecise, and absent of any discernable effort toward accuracy. The video in question is very similar. She completed the tape job, but with thorough incompetence -- and then posted it on YouTube for criticism.

[kmack4427]

@Ganellon no the reason she posted it on youtube was to show people how to do it if they ever needed help. and regarding my grammar i will type out my response in any way i please. i dont need criticism from anyone and i would appreciate it if you and that stick up your ass refrained from commenting back

jolly good old chap:)

[jordiejoejordiejoe]

@Ganellon no shes not. thats how my trainer does it for my high school team. i guess u use different methods.

[chomchomtotoro]

@jordiejoejordiejoe yeah i do that too.. its really funny how people r like saying she uses to much tape when she isnt.. thats how its done

[TheRadFactor]

@Ganellon, You are right. This is a bad style to strap the ankle in many ways. It does not mean it will break the foot but it is wrong because the hugely reduced flow of blood and the lack of mobility are obvious and are dangerous if repeatedly occur. Basically, the lesser tape is used to deliver the support job for the ankle (or any other part of the body for that matter) the better. She kept wrapping his ankle like if his life depends on it.. She might as well have put a cast instead..

[chilean07]

This is not a very good example. Too many circular wraps produces wrinkles and increase the pressure in the area.

She also misses the point of the basket weaving technique which is alternating stirrups and horse shoes instead of doing the 3 stirrups at once.

The heel is also completely taped. That is not supposed to happen either.

[lalehm17]

you arent supposed to cover the heel completely

[basketball559]

why not?

[lalehm17]

it will become too tight and not be able to perform very well

[MrJAYEM1]

she used WAY too much tape and that looks very tight and uncomfortable. she also did a bunch or circular wraps which isnt recommended.

[xbien5]

seems like. he cant even move his foot. like cant even bend it a lil

[ubflash1]

thats the point... its suppose to be like a cast...

[babygee84]

wow.. it looks more like a cast!

[1cywhip]

Holy shit I wouldn't wanna be the one taking that off lol

[FullMetalJackSquat]

Simple safety sissor and its off in 10 seconds.!

[iamjiraiya]

A LOT of tape.....

[awesomelycool963]

woah looks too tight, and like a lot of tape. lol but looks like it was done good :D

[masb717]

Going around and around the ankle is the circular thing. Its not recommended, because its usually too tight. Its better to rip the tape, and do like individual ones, instead of wrapping around continuously.

[chivas4life0023]

you suck lady.. to fast, slow down you bitch.

[Justifymeans]

I have a question, maybe a very dumb one, but I just read somewhere, that you shouldn't tape/bandage circular when you're doing this as a preventive tape/bandage. What do they mean by 'circular' and why is that bad? And is this vid an example of preventive taping or is this when you already have an injuring?

[luv4ducks]

please help me, my ankle hurts

[luv4ducks]

My physio doc. told me to  tape up my ankle over a tensor wrap thing because the tensor wasn't giving me the support I need. Is it possible to do this with hockey tape?

What is the name of the kind of tape used in the video, medical tape?

[eatsleephockey777]

hey did you find out if you can use hockey tape to tape up your ankle? thanks

[adiorocks101]

damn thats a lot of tape

[maxmotives13]

Haha you guys have clearly never had your ankle's taped. She did a perfectly adequate taping job. It does not cut off the blood circulation, and that is the perfect amount of tape needed. Please, know what you're talking about before you comment on these video's. It does not hurt when you take it off either--you can cut the tape off.

[devjamx]

what is the function of this thing? i dont understand why many footballers wearing this

[mayisha22]

That doesnt luk very right. 1st of all, too much tape. 2nd, u've only covered 1/2 of the leg. Thats not very good because it's going to mess up circulation!!

[bennya7x]

keyword of this video is ankle

[lionteq]

that's fukin rediculous...

[ITheHeadlessMan]

hurts like hell when u take it off. i had to do something like this for lacrosse got tht hurt!

[xxxxenigmaxxxx]

que habil es con las manos .. ya quisiera a ese ritmo unas kekas ...

[ddsailor25]

Even though I think there was too many heal locks and figure 8's athletes get use to the way their athletic trainer tapes. I'm sure the tape job was just fine for this athlete. The other thing you might notice in the video is the athlete has a decent arch. These athletes can tolderate a tighter tape job and won't usually cramp the foot.

[ThisIsTheWord3]

There weren't too many heal locks and figure 8's. You're supposed to do 2 of each. . . at least that's how I was taught!!

[flipstyle12]

that is not too much tape.. the only problem i see with it is that the athlete does not have the foot dorsiflexed, which helps the tape prevent the plantarinversion ankle sprain (most common ankle sprain). other than that.. just a couple of wrinkles..

[laumason]

The foot is supposed to be in slight plantarflexion to allow for some give with foot flexion and extension movements and a more normal gait pattern. The most common ankle sprain is an inversion sprain. Plantarflexion sprains are actually very rare in nature.

[bsktbalplyr25]

No one cares how much tape. The trainer sure doesnt. Our trainer does it the same way and it holds for 2 football games. back to back. The circulation is not a problem neither. You want it tight so you have support.

[rob2764]

lousy taping, too much, not adequte support.... poor athlete!

[Rtb12321]

i agree...too much tape..how's he supposed to get a shoe on now?

[LHUtrack165]

way too much tape for one job, waste

[xL0vexLess]

amazing, i can clearly see the figure 8 and heel lock

i have a test tomorrow on this xD

[mrmax201]

yea im a soph athelete nd if i cant play football in colege id love to b an athletic trainer

[yanzodadon]

won't that cut the blood circulation off? and wtf you don't cover the heel

[clayj4727]

for some reason i think that his foot will be purple if he left it on for too long

[crispy91]

well i wore it the whole game and it was perfect so ya

[ffjpbb]

there is a really bad circulation with that tape job

[jaz2917]

Dude! I'm great at the continuous figure 8's and heel locks! love it! lol where's the pre-wrap!?! and does anybody else do cover-up?? we do! [i'm a student athletic trainer at my school]

[crispy91]

the pre-wrap is on there, its just tan colored and hard to see

[flipstyle12]

you know pre-wrap actually serves no purpose but to keep the hairs on your legs from being torn off... in the pros the athletes are made to shave their ankles and legs and they use no prewrap at all... of course this is not every pro team... but most

[casey2008]

not bad but it could of been tighter if the taping dummy kept the ankle at the 90 degree angle. i've never continuously done figure 8's and heel locks. i do them seperately. but the longer the strip the more support...good tape job.

[dinochelsey444]

what no pre wrap

[jpreillyatc]

bad tape job! Watch the circulation.

[fdkjghdfl]

could I play football with this tape??

[Jonesy611]

Doubt it, probably wouldnt get your boot (cleat) on.

[crispy91]

ya, but u can get the minor tape job for games if this major set up is to stong

[meggysoccer09]

@crispy91 whats the minor tape job??

[JaredSalvati]

i do. what you do is you kip the heel locks and figure 8's. What lose do is lock your ankle instead of just support it

[sfdead]

thanks a lot :)

[sfdead]

should the tape job job be tight? or loose?

[crispy91]

tight, but only to the comfort of the athlete

[dualcam23]

i wish i had her in my high school =[

we need a trainer for football

[Athlete1990]

ask your coach to tape it. or a teammate. if that doesnt work, you're s.o.l

[Tanner92892]

is this only in case of injury?

i hav had recent ligament surgery on my ankle and he suggested i tape it for support but this doesnt look like something id support myself with while playing football

[qwer234kijhy]

its a closed basket weave, for restraint (limited ROM), for mov't you'd want a modified gibney with fan

[COLTSGOD34]

Great video!

[haydenbren]

very good, thanks

[TheGoalie00]

Amazing. I can finally do it! Thanks :)

[nicole5245]

Best ankle strap I have ever seen!!

Much easier to watch than read!!! Thanks so much xx

[affcup]

brilliant! thanks :)
