ABSTRACT:
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to stirrups as used in horse riding.
BACKGROUND
Many injuries which occur when a rider falls from a horse are due to the fact the riders foot becomes caught in the stirrup so that there is a high risk of serious injury as the rider is dragged along.
The present invention seeks to provide a new and inventive form of stirrup.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention proposes a riding stirrup which has a foot-receiving part and a suspension part for connection with a strap, in which the foot-receiving part is pivotally received on a projection on the suspension part to pivot about an axis which is generally parallel to the plane of the foot-receiving part and is held thereon by a retaining member which is released from the suspension part by such pivotal movement of the foot-receiving part.
