XTX Limiter Strap Install Question

[ShootToThrill]

I put on new limiter straps but removed the old ones before I had the new ones. In less than 1000 miles they are starting to get chewed up some, maybe from folding the wrong way. I wrapped them around the bars from the front, wondering if the wrap direction is correct or not? Does anyone have their skid out or close by to take a look to see the direction they are wrapped around the cross bars? Thanks!!

I have the star kit in my xtx that's why the bottom cross piece looks a little different, but still wrapped the same.

Thanks! I also have the star kit, check for slop on the bottom cross shaft and bars. I had mine welded
