The foot is held in an angle of 90 degrees
compared to the lower leg while taping. (The same position if
the person is standing): First 1 or 2 anchors are placed
around the lower leg. The anchor must not be too close to the
ankle joint - 15-20 centimetres distance would be fine. Take
care not to wind the tape so tight that it stops the bloodstream.

Next the taping starts from the outside of
the lower leg. The tape is fastened on the anchor and is led
diagonally over the wrist of the foot - |
and down to the Achilles' tendon |
