Intentionally Crooked Stirrup
"Crooked Stirrups" are designed with the base or tread of the stirrup sloping downward and away from the horse with the outside of the stirrup longer than the inside. This causes the rider to have a much more stable "base of support" when pressure is placed on the stirrups. The stirrup accomodates the rider's feet in their un-level, tipped outwardly position, when the legs are wrapped around the horse and saddle and results in a substantial increase in the rider's balance. The rider's feet fit flat against the base or tread of the stirrup giving the rider a very noticeable, increased security in the saddle. The rider's center of gravity is lowered since the knees are no longer torqued severely, inwardly toward the horse, allowing more balance control and fewer "lost" stirrups. Numbness and pain in the feet, ankles, knees and legs are eliminated when their origin was the unnecessary pressure on the outer edges of the feet.
