At Zebra Products, we only distribute brands and products that we believe in and would use ourselves, so we were delighted to receive this feedback from para dressage rider, Danielle Curzon. Despite a diagnosis of ME and fibromyalgia, coupled with a stroke, Danielle’s extraordinary journey has seen her participate in the Virtus World Para Dressage Championships, where she won team gold and individual II3 gold with Dizzy Rascal. 

“I’ve just had my first competitive outing with the amazing Sprenger Flexcite stirrups. My long boot zip broke, so I had to borrow some, which is not ideal when I am autistic and so sensitive to lower back pain. 

However, thanks to the Sprenger stirrups, I was pain free and we won and got our first qualifying score for music ???? on our first attempt. Isaac is a new horse to me with a bright future, in both Virtus para and BD.

I am very shocked at the positive difference the Flexcite stirrups have made. I have had a stroke and have Functional Neurological Disorder (FND), Hemiplegic migraines and hyper-mobility issues affecting my hips. Today was first time in months that I have ridden totally pain free. My whole right side felt more relaxed all the way up to my shoulder and I had no hip pain. My Ayurvedic doctor noted that there was hardly any inflammation at all in my lower back-normally, it is an inflammation hotspot and very painful. 

I’m passionate about helping others in a similar position to me with health conditions and I think these stirrups could be very beneficial to a lot of people.”

Here’s how the technology behind Sprenger Flexcite works- the stirrup has a curved bow, the special shape of which places the rider's leg close to the horse and supports an optimum leg position.

Thanks to the proven joint technology, the Flexcite stirrups offer more flexibility and effectively absorb shocks. This reduces the strain on the joints in the knee and foot, which increases comfort on longer rides or in show jumping

The non-slip Flexcite Grip inserts ensure optimum grip, even in wet conditions, offering a secure feeling in every situation.

Sprenger Flexcite stirrups are versatile and suitable for different riding disciplines:

Dressage riders: the Flexcite stirrups support your seat with an optimized leg position and a springy heel. 

Show jumping riders: This is where the Flexcite stirrup excels, as the stress-relieving properties really come into their own with the forces exerted on the foot and stirrup during jumping. The Flexcite Grip offers additional grip in the stirrup thanks to its non-slip stainless steel tread.

Leisure and cross-country riders: Like all jointed stirrups, the Flexcite stirrup reduces fatigue and ensures a pleasant riding experience, even on long rides.

We have always known, but it seems that you all agree! The Veredus TR Pro H5 tendon boot has won Your Horse’s May issue Tried & Tested Tendon boots, scoring full marks across the board. We were delighted to hear the excellent feedback from the tester and are, as he says, a smart investment!

The Veredus TR Pro H5 tendon boot is specifically designed for everyday wear and training. These lightweight boots are made of neoprene combined with durable Lycra for a perfect supportive fit, which follows the shape of the horse’s leg. The protective POLYFLEX outer shell (Elastic Polyurethane) offers impact resistance and feature elastic straps with quick release tips. The 5-cm-high elastic straps provide optimum comfort and flexibility to the horse by distributing tension over a wide area and maintain optimum hold over time by not deteriorating on contact with sand, dirt or mud. The quick-release tip makes it easy to put on and take off the boots. The Veredus TR Pro H5 boots are waterproof and are easy to clean

Available in black, brown or blue in size M-L.
