This design supports the pony\u2019s natural freedom of movement while helping protect its back from impacts caused by a child\u2019s occasional loss of balance.

The non-slip underside of the FlyPad\u00ae Mini keeps it securely in place, while the leather handle provides reassurance for beginners or children being led on a lunge line as they gain confidence.<br\/>The FlyPad\u00ae Mini is not fitted with stirrups and this is intentional. We recommend going without them at first, as they actually require greater balance and can present a risk of the child's foot becoming caught. This allows the child to develop a truly natural seat while maintaining a sufficiently subtle contact with the pony's back to improve their balance and progress.    <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-47b8c4cb\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1001\" class=\"gb-media-be72d448\" alt=\"\" title=\"vahana-FlyPad-mini-communication-flypad-withmom02b\" src=\"https:\/\/vahana.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vahana-FlyPad-mini-communication-flypad-withmom02b.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vahana.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vahana-FlyPad-mini-communication-flypad-withmom02b.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/vahana.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vahana-FlyPad-mini-communication-flypad-withmom02b-599x400.jpg 599w, https:\/\/vahana.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vahana-FlyPad-mini-communication-flypad-withmom02b-1199x800.jpg 1199w, https:\/\/vahana.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vahana-FlyPad-mini-communication-flypad-withmom02b-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vahana.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/vahana-FlyPad-mini-communication-flypad-withmom02b-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\">\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"v-cont-outer v-pad-side\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-96d79c44\">\n<div class=\"v-cent-cent gb-element-2a0ea16e\">\n<div>\n<h2 class=\"gb-text\">Designed for Miniature Horses, Shetlands, and Small Ponies up to 11.2 hands (117 cm)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-text\">The FlyPad\u00ae Mini is the only bareback riding pad designed specifically for small ponies and young riders.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"v-cont-outer v-pad-side gb-element-81d9224f\">\n<div class=\"gb-element-f130ed47\">\n<div class=\"v-cent-cent gb-element-dced4ce8\">\n<div>\n<h2 class=\"gb-text\">Benefits for the Pony<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"gb-text\"><strong>Back protection<\/strong><br\/>The wings of the FlyPad\u00ae protect the column and the withers by creating an adjustable back gutter.
