One thing and another I have bought these. I can't compare to the Sprenger as I haven't tried them, does anyone know a comparison?
First impression is they are weighty! Noticeably so just picking up the saddle.
Anyway lunged briefly as I haven't had ss stirrups for ten years, they sure looked weird.
Riding was interesting, her first reaction was to do a slow motion back up. They obviously altered my leg position to the point she thought I was wanting a back up.
My position looked better apparently and once we got going I liked them though need to sort out my length/boots. Mine has a worn out underneath, so what's your preference long or short and what.
Managed to canter a circle and I felt her bending around my inside leg which I haven't felt until now.
They are the Cottage craft anyone use these?
