The PolyPro Jump Foot™



The PolyPro Jump Foot™ by Premier Equestrian.

The latest equine innovation from Premier Equestrian. The PolyPro Jump Foot™ is found on ALL PolyPro jumps from Premier Equestrian.

The foot determines how stable the jump will be.
The PolyPro Jump Foot™ is wider, weighs more, holds the post better, and is more durable than any other jump-foot available.

New PolyPro Horse Jump Foot

We have solved the stability problem.
The PolyPro Jump Foot™ solves the stability problem with lightweight jumps. It is wide, it can be weighted with sand, it accepts any 3.5x3.5 post, and it is completely durable.


The PolyPro Jump Foot™ is 27” long, 7” wide, and 7” tall. The throat is
3.5 x 3.5 x 4-1/2 inches deep. The bottom is contoured for rigid strength and features a removable plug to fill the foot with sand, for extra weight.The foot weighs 4 lbs empty, and 15+ lbs when filled with sand. An additional 22 pounds of weight may be added to each standard should you need the extra stability.

 “…there are many jump foot designs on the market.  Here are some things to consider.”

The Post to Foot connection: 

The PolyPro Jump Foot™ provides a solid post to foot connection for no wobble, total solid support. A main feature is the 4.5” deep pocket that accepts and holds the end of the post. The pocket is cambered so it holds the post snuggly, requiring only one bolt for set-up. This assures total support to the post.

Some designs use a sleeve to connect the post to the foot (see picture), this leaves only 3.5” of PVC material supporting the entire jump. Ultimately the sleeve will take all of the “crash” pressure and often fail.

Other designs use the straight insert method, which provides more post support than the sleeve, but it can’t be weighted easily and is prone to wobble.

Foot Comparison
Twice as wide, much more stable



The Width of Foot:

The PolyPro Jump Foot™ has an amazing surface to ground
area of 1.31 sq ft. The width of the jump-foot plays an
important role in stability of a jump standard. The old type of
jump-foot is 3.5” wide which is a surface to ground area of
only .65 sq ft.


The PolyPro Jump Foot™ is wider and considerably more
stable than the other brand.

Compare:

Notice the sleeve design on the other brand. This small 3-1/2” piece is the only thing holding their jump post up; Very prone to breaking and wobble.

The Material used:

The PolyPro Jump Foot™ is made of UV treated polyethylene, the strongest material available. If your jump-foot is not wood then it is most likely PVC. PVC, though strong and resilient, has limitations for strength and impact. The PolyPro Jump Foot™ is made from Polyethylene, like your plastic mounting block.

This material is five times stronger than PVC and will last almost indefinitely.

The Weight of Foot:

The PolyPro Jump Foot™ weighs 4 lbs empty and up to 16 pounds full. The weight of the jump-foot translates directly into stability of the jump standard. Naturally, the heavier the foot, the more stable the jump.

Most PVC jump-feet weigh about 2 pounds. The PolyPro Jump Foot™ weighs 4 lbs empty and up to 16 pounds full.
