While keeping the webbing under the main frame, cross the webbing ends at the knee level and exit under the anchor points near the victim's mid-thigh. c. While keeping the webbing under the main frame, cross the webbing ends at the armpit level and then exit under the anchor points near the victim's stomach. d.
