- With silks together to one side, straddle invert, hook knee (opposite knee to the side the silks are on)
- Release the same-side hand as the hooked knee, reach below head, grab tails, sweep silks behind back, into armpit, and re-grab tails, snuggly around body, at hip (hold tightly as this is a break)
- Release other hand from poles and wrap free leg from inside to out, front to back
- Once leg is wrapped, release hand that is holding silks close to the body, while holding the tails that just wrapped the free leg
- Look at wrap around legs and waist, you will see the silks crossing, this is why it’s also called a Closed Wrap
- To Exit: Place hand on silks that are over the thigh that lead to the tails, with other hand, unwrap the knee, bringing tails from the back to the front, and then grab pole under knee
- Drop the tails and match hands under hooked knee, straddle down
