FAQs — Safety Stirrups

What are safety stirrups and how do they work?

They’re designed to release the foot if you fall. Some use flexible arms, others a hinged or pop-out mechanism that opens under pressure.

Are safety stirrups good for children?

Yes. Safety stirrups like the Flex-On® Safe-On Kids or peacock styles are ideal for junior riders.

What’s the difference between peacock stirrups and quick-release models?

Peacock stirrups use an elastic band that releases under force, while quick-release models like Tech Stirrups or Freejump use mechanical or flexing parts to allow safe foot exit.
