The Flex-On Safe-On IUG is a safety stirrup for riders over 40 kg, of any level and discipline. It combines Flex-On's shock absorption with a release arm that frees the foot in a fall.
The outer arm is a flexible elastomer safety branch. It opens downward first, and can also open upward in a serious fall, so the foot is not trapped. It needs a minimum force of 40 kg to open.
Elastomer shock absorbers under the footbed cushion the shocks and vibrations from the horse's movement, which reduces strain on the rider's joints. The wide inclined footbed has an ultra-grip insert: it keeps the foot stable and helps the heel drop naturally. The offset slot for the stirrup leather places the stirrup correctly under the leg. This reduces twisting of the leather and strain on the ankles, and gives better contact with the horse.
