Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I know which size is right for my horse?
A: The Regular (52”) size is ideal for most standard-sized horses and riders. If you ride a horse over 16.2 hands or have limited flexibility and need a much lower step to reach the stirrup, the X-Long (72”) version is the best choice.

Q: Is it difficult to carry while I am riding?
A: Not at all! The CASHEL Step Up comes with its own compact storage bag that clips directly to your saddle. It is lightweight and designed to stay out of the way of your leg and your horse's movement until you are ready to dismount and remount.

Q: Will this damage my saddle or slip during use?
A: When installed correctly over the horn or pommel, the extender provides a secure, temporary aid. It is designed to distribute weight evenly and minimize pressure points, though we always recommend ensuring proper placement before putting your full weight on the step.
