I have a problem with prone handcuffing. I can get the guy on the ground and in the 3-point pin no problem. I just get the position of the cuffs mixed up all the time and end up applying them in the wrong fashion. Any tips or hints you do to help simplify the prone handcuffing technique ?

Very often it can be a thankless job and you can't desire accolades, because those are not usually forthcoming. Just do your job to the best of your ability and live with the decisions you've made.

verbal commands
Sir
Use strong verbal commands from a distance of approximately 4-6 feet.
Get the suspect on his knees, cross his ankles, sit back on ankles, hands in the small of the back...
If he complies, you can move in and slowly and safely apply the cuffs as recommended in the other posts...
If he resists, you are far enough away, to come up with another plan including
1- calling back up
2- applying chemical agent
3- brawling him down and getting the cuffs on any which way you can10% of the cops do 90% of the work

There is never a rush to get them off, only on. Take your time, speed will come with practice.This profession is not for people looking for positive reinforcement from the public.
