ankle tape in wet conditions

[ali. f.]

thanks everyone for that.
i'm now putting some of that into to practice. as i'm writing my mums tape it up for me for cross country at school!

My tip would be to not get the unbranded wide strapping tape - after a soaking, it loosened and rucked up in my sock! Instead, go for the branded stuff from the traders (or Boots) instead. And yes, don't rely on it for too long.

I've also found that my orthotics were angled too high, and led me to go over on my ankle a fair bit, so I've changed them and my podiatrist (another debate, I know).

BTW also see the 'ankle brace' thread in the 'Reviews' forum.
