About Us

Prairie Saddlemart Ltd is proud to be the North American distributor of SmartRider Breakaway Stirrups.

The SmartRider Breakaway Stirrups are the SAFER alternative to standard stirrups. Endorsed by Horse Safety Australia, SmartRider Breakaway Stirrups have been providing active safety to Australian riders for more than 10yrs.

Invented by a horseman who's friend had died after sustaining critical injuries from falling off his horse and being dragged along the ground, the need arose for a SAFER stirrup. The innovative SmartRider Breakaway Stirrup has been saving the lives and reducing injuries of riders for many years.

SmartRider Breakaway Stirrups have a relatively new presence in North America but are quickly becoming the riders choice of safety stirrup. In use by several mounted police forces around the world such as NSW, Victoria, New York and the RCMP Musical Ride and is the preferred stirrup of Olympic riders such as John Whitaker (UK),Frankie Sloothaak (Germany) and Wayne Roycroft (Australia). Available in English (Classic) and Western (Escape) style.
