Give your child safety combined with innovation with the Safe-On Junior Grey Aluminum Safety Stirrups – Flex-On. Specifically designed for young riders, these stirrups reinvent horseback protection from the youngest ages. They combine advanced safety, tailored comfort, and unrivaled customization capacity to support every budding rider’s progress with peace of mind.
Active safety designed for young riders
The safety of children and teenagers on ponies or horses requires specially developed solutions. The children's safety stirrups Safe-On Junior stand out for their engineering, adapting the concept of the releasable branch—highly regarded among adults—to the morphology and weight of young riders (under 40 kg).
- Release in case of a fall: The outer elastomer branch is designed to open downward when enough pressure is applied (from 15 kg or 31 kg depending on the selected fuse). This feature drastically reduces the risk of getting caught in the stirrup in the event of a fall and suffering serious injuries.
- Protection without compromise: The outer branch only releases upon significant impact, preventing accidental openings during pony work or while walking. In normal use, it ensures foot stability for safe and relaxed riding.
- Designed for reassurance: The Safe-On Juniors are made to limit stress for both young riders and their parents, thanks to a design that protects effectively without restricting freedom of movement or stability in the saddle.
Technology, comfort, and strength: a concentrate of flex-on innovation
Flex-On revolutionizes riding stirrups with cutting-edge industrial expertise and attention to detail. The Safe-On Juniors are crafted from a single-branch shape-memory steel frame, overmolded with resilient, eco-friendly bio-sourced polyamide. This unique architecture:
- Absorbs a large proportion of vibrations and shocks from jumping, mounting, or long hours in the saddle, protecting knees and ankles from the youngest age.
- Offers lightweight design to prevent weighing down the junior rider's leg and to aid technical progress.
- Ensures exceptional robustness, with an anti-oxidation finish that guarantees durability, season after season.
The treads, mounted on elastomers, provide extra cushioning and optimal grip, while reducing fatigue. The offset stirrup leather slot further enhances the connection between the leg and the pony, promoting stability and safety in all disciplines.
A complete and fun customization system
Because every child wants to identify with their equipment, Flex-On offers a unique customization experience:
- 9 frame colors (including grey aluminum here, as well as black, navy blue, white horse, green, red, etc.) to match tastes or coordinate with the rest of the gear.
- 3 tread colors (black by default, or gray/white) that are interchangeable on demand.
- 22 elastomer colors for the tread, for a coordinated or original look.
- Up to 16 different colors for the removable safety branch — the safety fuse — to match any style or easily identify your stirrups at the stable.
- Magnetic sticker kits that are easy to swap: a fun and unique detail each ride.
Combining safety and creativity, Safe-On Juniors also become the young rider’s favorite accessory, a source of enthusiasm and motivation.
Details designed to encourage learning
Beyond safety, these stirrups promote effective progress thanks to thoughtful design:
- Flat non-slip tread that naturally corrects foot position and improves seat.
- Shock absorption reduces muscle and joint fatigue, making riding more enjoyable even for the littlest ones.
- Enhanced stability due to grip and ergonomic shape, instilling confidence from the very first canters.
Everything is done to help junior riders build confidence, correct their position, and progress without fear—whether on the lunge, in the arena, during clinics, or out on the cross-country course.
