Choosing Stirrups - any help/ideas/reviews appreciated ?! :)

[Katie :)]

Hi

I'm shopping around for some new stirrups, I've always had metal irons and recently the bent irons. But I'm interested in the 'plasic' ones like Compositi, as I'd like something lighter and more comfortable- I do lots of showjumping. I don't want really big bulky looking ones etc, and I'm currently looking at the Compositi ones, does anyone have any suggestions or reviews? Do you like this brand, or prefer another brand? Also, I noticed there are different types, for example 'Reflex stirrups', or 'Premium profile stirrups' - I can't work out which of the many sorts would be best if any?! Any help please?

Thank you!
Katie

I have both the reflex and the premium. Seem good quality (had premium 2 years and they look like new). Very light. Bit of shock absorbtion but not so much that they destabalise the leg. I prefer the reflex as they have a broader tread that I like the additional stability of.

Ok, thank you! I think I'll put an order in for the reflex ones!

I have the reflex - prefer them to Sprengers.
