ℹ howto ~ Handcuffing Positions ~ There's more than you may realise, some less comfortable...

Most people think there is 1 position, palms together with the only difference being is it done in the front or at the back. There are more options available for handcuffing people depending on the threat the person poses.

The aim should be to make accessing the keyholes difficult or impossible if you have time and the ability, regardless of which method. The last position I demonstrate is a rear version of the front version already shown. The front version is more secure due to the keyholes being inaccessible by either hand. The rear version that I demonstrated was the opposite where the keyholes are accessible by my right hand, so do try to put the keyholes out of reach of a person.

These are the raw positions demonstrated, techniques for the process of handcuffing vary from haphazard "any which way you can get them on the person" to regimented, practiced specific tactics for various situations and threat levels. I cannot provide this information, I leave practicing these to you and your practice partner, where such training is needed.

Most uncomfortable for larger people are rear stack (any handcuffs) due to forcing the arms to go farther towards the rear center line and front palms together (rigid handcuffs) due to the way the wrists are restricted when you bring your hands closer to you.

Grear demonstration! What model handcuffs are these and are you able to get yourself out of all the positions?

I work in the jail and we out inmates in the holding cell that are flexible enough to flip the cuffs to the front. No one has thought about the back stack technique. Definitely going to use that for those flexible ones

The rear stack position looks painful.
