As participation levels in equestrian sport have continued to rise in recent years, so too has awareness of the importance of keeping your horse in good physical condition and shape. This has been the key consideration in research on improving horse riding surfaces and protective systems for your horse’s legs. But what about the rider?
The rider is also susceptible to conditions and incidents that can lead to impaired performance or even injury, particularly in competitive sports such as jumping, eventing and hunting. Riders have suffered injuries such as slipped discs and muscle problems. For this reason, Flex-On now designs products with optimum security in mind for both horse and rider which is why we’ve teamed up with Flex-On to provide you, the rider, the highest quality of revolutionary stirrups to benefit you and your horse.
Sarah Lavelle-Huxley, founder of Saddles Direct comments: “We are extremely proud to have been made official stockists of Flex-On stirrups, combining the best in design, innovation, comfort and performance. The current Flex-On trends also meet the needs of riders from all backgrounds and disciplines”.
The Flex-On Concept
A top of the range “Made in France” stirrup, designed and built specifically for equestrian sports that come in a variety of colours to suit your competition attire.
This innovative stirrup, with a strong, lightweight design offers a unique concept for personalisation. There are ergonomic shapes for the tread and stirrup leather slot, with a Best-In-Class shock absorbing system.
Lastly, eventing and jump champions including Gerco Schröder, Clément Boulanger, Thomas Carlile, Marie Hécart, Marie Demonte and Olivier Robert had first-hand experience with the Concept and have become Flex-on ambassadors.
