Re: [RC] Best Strirrups for Knees? - Laney Humphrey

That's interesting! I'll bet people who have trouble with their feet going "to sleep" would do better with a narrower twist too.

with HIS knees.  He can not tolerate riding in a saddle with a wide twist.
If the seat has a more narrow twist, his knees have very little pain.  He
went though many of the different stirrups etc., thinking that would help,
then when he rode a saddle one day that had a more narrow seat (twist) and
no pain!

He can not even ride a couple miles in my Big Horn without knee pain, but
his Ortho-Flex Patriot is a perfect fit for him. Of course, it does not fit
any of the horses with out making sores, but that is a whole 'nuther
issue........
