Stirrups info...

Stirrups are a pair of metal or wooden loops that hang from a saddle and are used to support the rider's feet while riding. They are an essential component of a riding saddle and are used to provide stability and balance to the rider while in motion

  What material are stirrups?

Stirrups are typically made of metal or wood and may be covered in leather or rubber for added grip. They hang from the saddle on either side of the horse and are connected to the saddle by stirrup leathers, which can be adjusted for different riders' heights.

  What size do you require?

The size and shape of stirrups can vary depending on the type of riding being done. For example, stirrups used for English riding tend to be smaller and lighter, while those used for Western riding tend to be larger and heavier. There are also specialty stirrups designed for specific types of riding, such as racing or dressage.

   Why are stirrups essential?

Stirrups are an important safety feature when riding, as they provide a stable platform for the rider's feet and help to prevent the rider from falling off the horse. They also help to distribute the rider's weight evenly across the horse's back, reducing the risk of discomfort or injury to the horse.

What is the purpose of a stirrup?

What is the function of a safety stirrup?

Although the stirrup performs the same effect, safety stirrups are designed to free your foot during a fall so your foot doesn't get caught. Most designs have a “breakaway” feature on the side or top of the stirrup that's triggered by the rider's weight to release your foot during a fall.
