Abetta Escape Breakaway Stirrups

The Escape Breakaway Stirrups provide an effective, affordable stirrup for Western and English riders. The Breakaway stirrup is designed to release when pressure is applied laterally, helping to prevent the rider from being dragged after falling from the horse. The middle bar is designed not to release unless the toe of the foot is pointed upwards, as it does when a rider falls from the horse, hooks the bar and applies lateral pressure. The inner bar will then release, freeing the foot from the stirrup. A great item for a lesson barn that has some of beginners young or older.
