CTI brace slipping?

So I got the CTI knee brace before the season started, it's not a custom one but I went to one of those fitting sessions and it seemed to fit then. I skied the whole winter with it and it was fine but now it's starting to slip whenever I ski. I've tried to put it on tighter but it's still slipping so is there any way I can prevent it from slipping down my knee?

Wear one of those elasticated tube bandage things under it. The name has completely escaped me unfortunately.

Only issue is that if it bunches behind your knee it can irritate your skin.

I have the same brace and it does the same thing. The Velcro wears off so fast on those braces, it's stupid.
