The last step, the circular tape around the mtp joints is not so smart idea. It can cut of the blood supply. At least, thats what they tought me at school. Besides, the foot should be relaxed when it is being taped and not tensed as in this clip. The function of the tape is to substitute the fascia plantaris, so the fascia can rest and recover. When the foot is dorsalflexed like here, this technique is not optimal.
