Mounty Testimonials

Ingrid Klimke

“I’m now convinced that a mounting aid saves unnecessary expenditure of energy, and reduces the strain on muscles and joints. Placing an unnecessary strain on your mount is poor horsemanship, and making life hard for yourself is plain silly.

“Mounty´s Cool+Press is more than good – it’s very good!”

“Comments like “Anyone who uses a mounting aid should forget about riding and apply for a senior citizens’ bus pass” show just how woolly-minded some self-appointed equestrian experts can be. Clearly they have no idea of the tractive forces the horse has to withstand when a rider standing on the ground heaves himself into the saddle. As a professional rider, I find self-satisfied condescension easier to bear than the longsuffering pity of my horse!”

“As far as Mounty Cool+Press is concerned, we think it’s a first-rate product. We use the boots at our stables every day, and we always take them with us to riding events. The Mounty mounting aid has been a fixed part of our stable for years. We wouldn’t be without it “

“Mounty Cool+Press, is very useful for the treatment of tendons and suspensory ligaments”

“The Mounty mounting aid is an amazingly simple, well-designed piece of equipment that I can only recommend in the highest terms. The use of a mounting aid should be part of the standard procedure for the prevention and management of problems in the horse’s back and lumbar regions.”

“Especially our reining horses enjoy Cool+Press after training. It is the best way to keep the legs healthy. We take the system to every competition.”

“My horses love the Warm-Up while brushing them. They are totally relaxed. So it is good for them and for me. The back is loosens even before mounting! It saves time and money and makes my horses happy.”

“I’ve been using the Mounty mounting aid whenever possible for quite some time now – and with good reason. For a start, this useful aid makes mounting easier for the horse and the rider. It makes the entire process faster, more dynamic, and, above all, less of a trial of strength. That applies to the rider and the horse in equal measure. People who think mini climbing expeditions are a demonstration of their sporting ability are simply out of touch!”
