The design was created to provide equestrians with stylish and visually pleasing stirrups - with safety features being the top consideration. The main objective was to create safety stirrups to minimize the risk of a severe injury and maximize the rider's safety.

But how do Ophena stirrups work?

Ophena S is an innovative magnetic safety stirrup. These stirrups are best suited for showjumpers, show hunters and pleasure riders, as magnetic safety stirrups are not currently allowed at dressage shows.

The features of the magnetic safety stirrups include:

  • Open design that allows the rider's foot to release
  • Magnetic connection between the stirrup and the magnetic insole
  • Smart Attach™ -system for easier attachment and detachment of stirrups
  • Excellent grip 

This video shows Ophena's magnetic safety stirrups in action. 

Ophena S stirrups have excellent benefits that make them so desired in the equestrian field. 

  • The open design allows the rider's foot to release easier in case of an accident
  • The magnetic connection prevents your foot from slipping out of the stirrups, and decreases the chance of losing your stirrup during the ride
  • Can improve leg position 
  • Can improve balance and posture
  • Can decrease ankle, knee, and hip pain
