Brand: LeMieux
A safety stirrup made in a technologically advanced, lightweight and classic style.
Machined from aviation-grade aluminum to provide impressive strength for weight distribution.
Lighter than most stirrups (419g) on the market without damaging them.
The ergonomic footrest of this stirrup is set at 5º with a cross track grip surface.
It is mounted on a shock-absorbing cushioning layer of dynamic polymer with a compressibility of 70%.
It absorbs shock and vibration during jumping and landing, reducing knee and ankle fatigue.
Reduces stress on leg muscles and tendons.
Built-in reinforced steel fins provide maximum security for the boot.
The footrest is supported by a twin-balanced arch system that distributes weight evenly throughout the stirrup frame.
The vertices of the frame are concave and offset to encourage a 45 1/4 outward orientation.
Allows riders to find the optimal angle to their feet and easily retrieve lost stirrups.
The integrated safety arm has a two-stage release system that prevents unintentional opening.
A spring-loaded safety arm is secured to the base of the main frame and
When subjected to maximum pressure, such as landing over a fence,
The rider's weight is evenly distributed throughout the stirrup, preventing the outside from falling or bending.
When pressure is applied to the stirrup arm, such as when the rider falls
The arm is released to prevent the foot from slipping out of the stirrup and getting caught.
In the test, the stirrup arm breakout force (equivalent to 3.62 kg) was
means sufficient resistance to prevent inadvertent opening, but
It is safely released if the rider falls.
FEI, dressage, eventing and show jumping are all used.
