SURE FOOT Equine Balance Pads are intended for in the patented SURE FOOT Equine Stability Program® developed by Wendy Murdoch. This program is a progressive system in which the horse is gradually introduced to various unstable surfaces. SURE FOOT pads are designed to support function and mobility and improve posture and proprioception.

Medium pads are the most springy of all SURE FOOT pads. Riders often describe them as their personal favorite pads to stand on due to their lively rebound behavior. for , it is precisely this elasticity that makes medium pads ideal for areas of application:

• 
  Promoting more elastic, expressive movement in horses that tend to move flat
  
• 
  Increased challenge and variety for that already have experience with hard or firm pads
  
• 
  Combine with other SURE FOOT pads to provide a wide range of balance and sensory stimuli.
  

Due to their strong spring effect, medium pads are not recommended as starter pads. Horses that are not yet accustomed to the stability of hard or firm pads may find them too unstable or unsettling at first.
