Abstract
In a quick release safety attachment for a stirrup comprising spring-loaded rods in a sleeve which rests in the stirrup strap with the ends of the rods engaging the ends of a stirrup and a pair of lever arms extending radially outward from the interior of the sleeve engaged with the rods for controlling the operation of the device to release the stirrup, the arms are provided with notches and a Velcro strap for more positively securing the arms in place when the safety release is cocked and bearings are provided in the sleeve to work in conjunction with the rods to provide a more positive release and minimize the possibility of a premature release.
