Jump 4 Joy are no strangers to innovation – for over 25 years they’ve been leading the way
in showjump design, delivering products that are practical, durable, safe, and loved by riders
across the globe. This year, we’re delighted to see them take centre stage as an official
partner of All Star Academy 2025, the equestrian talent show that brings together some of
the UK’s most promising grassroots riders.
It’s a perfect match. The All Star Academy has always been about providing opportunities for
everyday equestrians to learn, grow, and shine – and Jump 4 Joy is built on the very same
ethos. Their jumps are designed to make training safer, easier, and more effective for riders
at every level, whether you’re just starting out or preparing for your next big competition,
across both showjumping and cross country.
Why Jump 4 Joy Stands Out
Since their beginnings in 1995, Jump 4 Joy has revolutionised the way we think about
showjumps. They were among the first to create jumps made from top-quality, UV-stabilised
plastics – offering a lighter, stronger, and more weather-resistant alternative to traditional
wooden designs. The result? Jumps that require almost no maintenance, withstand the
elements year-round, and still look as good as the day you bought them.
On top of that, their clever designs include built-in safety features that reduce the risk of
accidents for both horse and rider. It’s this commitment to performance and welfare that
makes Jump 4 Joy such a valuable part of the All Star Academy setup. Contestants can
focus on their riding and training, knowing the equipment beneath them has been developed
to the highest standards of safety and practicality.
Helping Horses and Riders at Home
One of the biggest benefits of Jump 4 Joy equipment is its versatility. Their wide range of
wings, fillers, poles, portable cross country fences, and training aids mean that you can
recreate professional setups at home, even in small arenas. Riders can practise everything
from gridwork to technical combinations with equipment that is easy to move, store, and set
up solo.
For horses, the brightly coloured designs and replicated natural fences help sharpen focus
and build confidence over fences. The lightweight yet stable materials also allow riders to
introduce variety into training, keeping sessions fresh and enjoyable while developing
technique. Whether you’re building balance, improving rhythm, or just having fun, Jump 4
Joy jumps make it possible without the hassle of heavy lifting or endless repairs.
Their range of both showjumps and cross country fences are beloved by a wide range of top
riders in the sport, including Ros Canter, Tom McEwan, Joe Stockdale, Joe Whitaker, Piggy
March, as well as amateur equestrian stars like Harlow Luna White.
The Perfect Fit for All Star Academy
With its emphasis on developing real riders in real-world conditions, All Star Academy
2025 is the perfect platform for Jump 4 Joy to showcase what they do best: supporting
grassroots riders with equipment that combines world-class quality with everyday practicality.
It’s an exciting partnership that promises to inspire riders watching at home to take their own
training to the next level.
Top Tips Tuesday with Jump 4 Joy
Mix it up: Vary your fillers and colours to keep horses sharp and prevent them from
getting too comfortable with the same set-up.
Think small: Even low fences can be hugely beneficial – use grids and small
combinations to improve rhythm and rider position, without unnecessary extra wear
and tear on your horse.
Solo friendly: Take advantage of the lightweight design – set up exercises by
yourself and save time (and your back!), without having to wait for help.
Combining resources: You can combine showjumps and cross country fences to
replicate lines you would find out on course, as well as keeping your horse interested
without having to venture out into a muddy field!
