The Flexia stirrups were developed to meet the needs of the rider in the saddle.
The tread has an elliptical surface structure, which offers ergonomic support for the sole of the foot, while ensuring high grip with the boot.
Inside the tread there is the “Flex System“: a precision mechanism studied in over 5 years of research and extensively tested in the field to fine-tune it. The mechanism is made of the highest quality materials and allows the tread to rotate on the horizontal axis, flexing backwards or forwards to constantly follow the position of the rider’s foot.
Together with the construction of the arches and the perfect balance of the various components, the flexible tread constantly anticipates and follows the position of the foot, immediately giving a feeling never experienced before during sporting activity.
Thanks to the resistance regulation of the “Flex System”, the energy generated by the horse’s movements is released proportionally to its gaits, significantly lightening the rider’s joint effort. The effect is immediate relief of the knees and pelvis, along with smoother use of the ankle.
During the most demanding show jumping sessions, the rear Flex is a great ally in taking off and landing from the jump, while the front Flex compensates for any forward shifts in the rider’s balance.
