The downside of these irons is that your feet can sometimes slip out and too much ankle pressure can cause pain in both ankles and knees. I currently ride in Nu Angle stirrups and this was a problem when I started riding in them (got used to it now). When this happened I would lengthen my stirrups to relieve the pressure. Flex-on Das Physio Support-Pad ist hier eine klasse Übergangslösung: Man sitzt durch die mittig etwas schmaler geschnittenen Einlagen nicht ganz so breit und die Pauschen bieten guten Halt. Auch flottes Galoppieren im Gelände, sowohl auf der Geraden und als auch bergauf, sind bei trainiertem Knieschluss problemlos möglich. Kleine Sätze zur Seite lassen sich ebenfalls gut ausbalancieren.
I love this saddle because it’s super versatile – You can remove the stirrups and girth and replace them with your own if you wish. I like the basic design, it’s comfortable to ride in and has a secure grab handle at the front. The pad measures 26 x 38 inches and fits medium to large horses. Pros Incredibly lightweight for metal looking stirrups, they are made from the finest lightweight aluminium, with an easy clean spiked tread. If you struggle with keeping your heels down, these irons can be a good option to encourage proper leg position and balance whilst riding. They also provide a relatively good grip and are light in weight, making them good for competitions. We liked that you don’t need tools to restore the breakaway mechanism, which is handy. The tread left no marks on boots, even though the grip felt prominent to touch. They’re particularly useful is you don’t want your heels to be forced down because they don’t have an incline. Be aware there are different designs of saddle to adapt to the different shapes of the rider’s pelvis. Therefore, a saddle that fits an adult male pelvis is unlikely to fit a female as well.Saddle fit accessories, such as breast-plate, crupper or a foregirth, may be used to hold the saddle in position, but if you discover you need it every day to keep your saddle in position, the saddle may not fit your horse properly. However, the conformation of some horses makes perfect saddle fit impossible and additional accessories are required for correct fitting. If you are struggling with knee and ankle pain, there are many different stirrup options available on the market that you can try. Every rider is different, but some stirrups do pride themselves on joint relief and comfort. What we refer to as a “new generation stirrup”, these steel Flex On Stirrups can perform all the way to a professional level and are suitable for a whole range of activities – everything from eventing to just the casual ride out.
A wide footrest gives a rider more stability and allows them to anchor their foot better than in a narrow tread. Wide footbeds are better for jumping as they feel more secure and gives the rider more space to push-down and keep their balance over jumps. This will be similar to dressage. One needs to remember that you should always be able to keep a bend in your knee whether you are rising, cantering, or doing a sitting trot. You should never have to reach for the stirrup or have it fall off your foot. Too much bend will cause knee pain. This can be a disaster if the rider is caught up in the stirrup, or even if they fall free, the horse now has a pad and stirrups flapping underneath to scare them and for hooves to get caught in. Try not to rely heavily on the hand hold at the withers or the included stirrups, both would be defeating the purpose of the pad. Pros

Dressage riders need to sit deep in their saddle and have their stirrups at a longer length than jumpers. Dressage riders also have to have longer, straighter positions in the saddle. The new sloped version also offers a3 degree angled footbed to ensure you maintain the correct leg position and posture, but also reducing injury and strains, such as knee pain on long rides. These are a great option if this is something you suffer with after long rides.
The Ophena S magnetic safety stirrups have a unique open design and magnetic system to prevent you getting caught in the stirrup with no room for error. They are designed to help improve your control, leg position and confidence. These stirrups include a pair of magnetic insoles that create a magnetic connection between the stirrups and your boots, which provides you with better grip and control no matter the conditions.
Die Pauschen bei dem physio support haben mich eindeutig überzeugt. Der halt ist super und so ist das pad deutlich pflegeleichter als mit dem Lammfell.
