[QUOTE="edinburgh_gunner, post: 110418"] I've had to tape up my second rows legs before, so I know what to do. What you need: Cotton pads Wide medical tape Insulating Tape First off, get a big bunch of the cotton pads and cut them in half so they're semi circles. Make sure you've got a big bunch of them for each leg cause they'll get compressed when you put the tape round them. Secondly, while holding them in place, wrap the medical tape over them and around the thighs (make sure to take your fingers out the way, we've had second rows who would stuggle with this unless told) several times, so that the pads are completley covered up and there's plenty tape either side of them just to make sure they stay in place. Finaly, put some insulating tape round them. This just helps to keep everything in place really, but it's not essential. It does make a difference, it gives you an extra few inches and from a lifting point of view, I've always found it easier to do it with tape than with shorts cause it can allow for a quick lift. Hope that helped. [/QUOTE]
