FAQs

What are Wintec All Purpose Flexiblocs Front Jump for?

They are designed to provide adjustable thigh and knee support for riders, helping to customize saddle fit and enhance comfort and stability, particularly in jumping and close contact saddles.

Are these blocks suitable for any saddle?

They are suitable for all Wintec models and are specifically recommended for WINTEC Jump, WINTEC Close Contact, and pony saddles. While they might fit other saddles, their design is optimized for Wintec.

How do I attach the Flexiblocs?

The Flexiblocs are placed under the saddle flap. They are moveable and wedge into position, requiring no permanent attachment.

Do I need a pair for each leg?

Yes, the product comes as a pair, providing support for both the left and right leg.

How often should I adjust the Flexiblocs?

Adjustment frequency depends on individual riding style and how much the blocks move. It is recommended to check their position periodically, especially before longer rides or after strenuous activity.

Can these help with leg stability during jumping?

Yes, by providing customizable support, they can help riders maintain a more secure and stable leg position, which is beneficial for jumping.

What is the color of the Flexiblocs?

The color is Black.

Troubleshooting

Flexiblocs slip or move unintentionally.

Ensure the saddle flap area is clean and dry. Try repositioning the blocks more firmly against the saddle. Some riders find that if the saddle is very new or the flap material is very smooth, a bit of breaking-in or using them consistently helps them stay put. If slippage persists, consider if your saddle's flap shape is ideal for this type of block.

Blocks feel too bulky or restrictive.

Adjust the position of the blocks further back or closer to the stirrup leather. Try removing one block at a time to see if a single block provides adequate support without excess bulk. Ensure you are using the correct size block for your saddle and leg.

Difficulty in finding the optimal position.

Experiment with small adjustments. Ride in the saddle for short periods with different positions to gauge comfort and effectiveness. It may take a few rides to fine-tune the placement for your unique needs.
