SPRENGER PRODUCTS FOR A BEACH VACATION WITH A HORSE
What rider doesn't dream of galloping through the waves with their beloved four-legged friend? A vacation with a horse by the sea is a dream for many riders. The freedom of galloping across the beach, feeling the wind in your hair and hearing the sound of the waves is incomparable. To make your beach vacation perfect, high-quality and reliable equipment is essential. This is where SPRENGER products come into play, as they are not only known for their quality, but also for their durability and comfort. In this article, we will introduce you to some of the best SPRENGER products that are indispensable for a vacation by the sea with a horse.
Stirrups from SPRENGER: safety and comfort in one
Stainless stirrups like the classic Fillis stirrup
The classic Fillis stirrup from Sprenger is made of stainless steel and offers outstanding stability and durability. These stirrups are ideal for beach riding as they do not rust even when in contact with salt water. The simple but robust design of the Fillis stirrup ensures that you always have a secure grip, no matter how wild the rides on the beach get.
SPRENGER Bow Balance and Flexcite articulated stirrups
For additional comfort and joint protection, we recommend the Bow Balance and Flexcite stirrups from Sprenger. These innovative stirrups are equipped with an joint that enables a flexible movement and reduces stress on the rider's tendons, ligaments and joints. This can make a big difference, especially on long rides on the beach, as the strain on knees and ankles is reduced. The Bow Balance stirrups also offer a wider tread surface that provides optimum support for the foot and prevents slipping. The non-slip rubber tread provides a good grip even when wet and can be replaced with a stainless steel stirrup tread for additional grip if required.
The specially curved shape of the Bow Balance and Flexcite stirrups ensures that the stirrup is optimally balanced and can be picked up easily. It also supports an optimum leg position and brings the rider's leg close to the horse. The rubber protects the joints from water so that nothing stands in the way of a trip into the cool water!
Stainless steel spurs: precision and durability
Not only the stirrups, but also the spurs quickly come into contact with salt water on a beach vacation with your horse. So it's a good thing that we're well equipped for this too! Our stainless steel spurs don't mind this at all. Our biothane spur straps are ideal for beach vacations as they are waterproof and dirt-repellent. So you can rely on your equipment and enjoy your ride on the beach to the full!
Classic ULTRA fit and ULTRA fit EXTRA GRIP models
SPRENGER also focuses on quality and functionality when it comes to spurs. The ULTRA fit and ULTRA fit EXTRA GRIP models made of stainless steel are the perfect companions for a beach vacation with your horse. They offer precise aids and are extremely durable at the same time. To guarantee an optimum fit, you can easily adjust the spurs to your boot by gently bending them. The special spur strap guide through the Balkenhol loop also ensures a non-slip fit. Our EXTRA GRIP models also have a rubber coating that provides even more grip and comfort while protecting the boot leather.
Spurs with or without rowel
Whether you choose spurs with or without a rowel depends on your personal preferences and your horse's level of training. Spurs with a rowel, e.g. with a ball wheel or comfort roller, enable even finer and more targeted aids to be given. Rowel spurs are also suitable for horses with sensitive coats, as the rowel glides over the coat. The classic spurs without a rowel, on the other hand, are ideal for riders who prefer a more direct contact.
SPRENGER bell boots
Is your horse wearing horseshoes or do you want to protect it from overreaching? Especially if your horse is not yet used to riding through water, it can make particularly large strides and accidentally injure itself or kick off a horseshoe. Our rubber bell boots are ideal for protecting against this. Another big advantage: the bell boots do not have a touch tape fastener that can soak up water and then quickly come undone. They are also easy to care for, simply rinse briefly with clean water and they look like new again!
