Description
Flex On Aluminium Shock Absorber Stirrups are a revolutionary concept with a classical foundation. The Flex On Stirrups from Flex On are made of aeronautical-grade Aluminium. The design of these stirrups incorporates “elastomers” which enable shock absorption.
Size and Dimensions
The Flex On Aluminium Stirrups are available in only 1 Size. Dimensions:
Inside Width: 4.75″ (12 cms)
Total Width: 5.5″ (14 cms)
Length : 2.75″ (7 cms)
Protect Your Knees and Back
Give your knees and ankles the relief they deserve. The shock absorbers efficiently dampen the impact from landing.
Aluminium vs Green Composite
Flex On produces two different versions of the shock absorbing stirrups: Aluminium vs Green Composite. The performance of the shock absorbers
The Inclined Ultra Grip serves two advantages:
- The “spikes” (Ultra Grip) made of hardened steel enable a non-slip grip. The “spikes” grip to the bottom of your boots providing superior adhesion to the stirrup.
- The Incline allows better foot positioning. Better positioning enables better posture.
Simply speaking, these stirrups will prevent you from losing the stirrup. The shock absorption is especially important because of the impact on landing. The “elastomers” of the stirrup absorb the impact, not allowing transfer to the ankles or knees.
The stirrups’ traditional and classic design makes them a good fit for use in jumping, eventing, hunter, dressage and polo.
Sticky Grip
If you are looking for stirrups with a sticky grip, look no further. The Spike studded footboard of the stirrups ensures you will not slip out of your stirrups.

Fantastic stirrup ! Great grip, I never loose a stirrup when mud or sand is on the bottom of my boot, plus they look sharp ! I own four saddles and have this stirrup on all my saddles. My foot is secure and always in the correct position.

I’m a professional jumper rider and trainer. I’ve been jumping for over 30 years and have quite a bit of pain in my knees and lower back. I’m always looking to find gear that can help lower the pain level and when I find something that works I recommend it to my friends and clients

I had been searching for stirrups with a “sticky” grip. The spikes provide a super “sticky” grip. I can’t say enough good things about these stirrups. A lot of dressage arenas have a sand base footing. Sand between your foot and stirrup can create slipping of your boot. With Flex on stirrups my foot actually stays in place allowing me to focus on other aspects of riding …They’re fantastic.
