Safe Wrap

The most common method for two people to control a single, resistant subject is with prone restraint. While there are times when prone restraint is safe and advisable, when it is relied upon as the default method of restraint, it might give the subject being restrained certain tactical advantages that increase the risk of injury to the restrainers. These advantages include (but not limited to):

  • Escape Power: When the subject is placed on their stomach, they are optimally positioned to push off the ground which may enable them to stand up and escape, or cause harm to others.
  • Hidden Hands: In the prone position, the subject's hands are often tightly buried underneath their body, making it very difficult for the restrainers to extract their arms (as is often the case for handcuffing).
  • Weapon Access: Because their hands are hidden, the subject may be able to access a weapon in their waistband, and by the time others become aware of the threat, it may be too late.

The SafeWrap system avoids prone restraint and thus alleviates many of these potential issues.
