The Flex On Safe On Safety Stirrups for Juniors in Black are specifically designed to enhance the safety and security of young riders. These innovative stirrups are part of Flex-on’s advanced “Breakaway” style, where the outer arm of the stirrup opens to release the foot in the event of a fall. This greatly reduces the risk of the rider being dragged or injured by a frightened pony.
Designed with junior riders in mind, the Safe-On Junior Stirrups offer the perfect balance of stability and safety. The stirrup’s outer arm remains secure during regular use, providing confidence and ensuring the rider maintains their balance. In the event of a fall, the outer arm will release when 15kg or more of weight is applied, allowing the foot to exit the stirrup safely. If the fall does not apply sufficient force to the outer arm or if the pony remains still, the stirrup will not open.
Key features:
- Safety-focused design: The outer arm opens under pressure to release the rider’s foot during a fall.
- Weight-activated release: Requires at least 15kg of weight or equivalent kinetic energy to open.
- Stability: Outer branch remains in place during normal riding to provide balance and security.
- Lightweight: Weighing only 1.2 kg, these stirrups are designed for young riders without adding unnecessary bulk.
- Durable construction: Built to withstand regular use and the rigours of riding.
While no safety equipment can completely eliminate risks, the Flex On Safe On Safety Stirrup Junior, in Black, provide excellent protection and peace of mind, making them an ideal choice for young riders and their families.
