How to Turn Your Stirrups

Follow these simple instructions in order to properly turn your stirrups:

1. Put the saddle on a stand.

2. If you were sitting in the saddle, your left foot would turn a FULL turn counterclockwise your right foot would turn a FULL turn clockwise. This may seem like more than you need as you are turning them but you need to go beyond the point you actually need.

3. This will turn the fenders into a tube. Then you stick a broom handle through the stirrups to hold them. It is easier with 2 people.

*For added flexibility you may wet your fenders front and back with a hose. This will make them stay permanently.
