My 9yo dd has been using the Matrix toe cages www.horze.co.uk/Matrix_Toe_Cages/16075,en_GB,pd.html for a year after several terrifying dragging incidences. She's now growing out of them & I'm considering what to do next. She has hypermobility in her ankles which led to her foot going through the stirrup. She's really progressed in her riding & jumping 2ft 6"-2ft 9". I still want her to wear the cages as I feel nothing else offers the safety that cages do in terms pf stopping the foot going through the stirrup BUT, are there any discreet cages that have more comfy footbeds e.g. softtreads
I've seen these but they are quite bulky. Great for Endurance but quite clumsy for showjuming www.performance-equestrian.com/cat/catitem.asp?pc=SSTC&d=2&s=5
Does a soft tread/ comfortable discreet toe cage stirrup exist ? Other suggestions ??
