Learn<\/a> saddle fitting tips for a comfortable ride. Find the perfect fit for you and your horse.<\/p>\nDescription of features:<\/p>\n
Elastiflex Tree has a rigid head to maintain clearance over the horse\u2019s withers. Lateral flexion works with the horse\u2019s muscular movements in every stride. Precision engineered to be lightweight, symmetrical and ultra-durable, this tree is guaranteed against breakage for the lifetime of the saddle (deemed to be 10 years under normal riding conditions).<\/p>\n
EASY-CHANGE Fit Solution is comprised of the EASY-CHANGE Gullet system and the EASY-CHANGE Riser system. It offers a total saddle fitting solution for absolute horse comfort and rider peace of mind.<\/p>\n
Select the optimal gullet width in the EASY-CHANGE Gullet system for the horse\u2019s current shape and muscling. Make adjustments within the saddle panels for optimal balance and clearance with the EASY-CHANGE Riser system. All adjustments are measurable, symmetrical and completely reversible, ensuring total confidence in the saddle\u2019s ability to be custom fitted to the horse\u2019s changing shape for optimal comfort and performance.<\/p>\n
CAIR cushions within generously sized panels offers performance advantages over traditional panel fillings in the way they distribute a rider\u2019s weight and cushion a horse\u2019s back. In distributing weight, air cushions continually mold to mirror the horse\u2019s individual conformation and working muscles. They ensure a close, even contact over a much larger weight-bearing area and help eliminate instances of pressure points.<\/p>\n
In cushioning the horse\u2019s back, the dynamic nature of the air ensures it works in synergy with the horse\u2019s muscles, rather than the horse\u2019s muscles working against a static medium. Additionally, air provides the ultimate shock absorption, reducing instances of trauma to the horse\u2019s muscles in work.<\/p>\n
The large saddle panels maximize the weight-bearing surface on the horse\u2019s back. The optimized area results in a reduction in pressure per square inch. Coupled with a wide and even channel, the panel design supports the horse\u2019s working muscles and allows optimal movement in the horse\u2019s shoulders.<\/p>\n
FlexiContourbloc is anatomically shaped to the rider\u2019s leg, allowing the leg to fit in and behind the block to support the individual\u2019s position in maximized comfort and security. This bloc can be move forward, backward or on the precise angle to mirror the rider\u2019s individual riding position.<\/p>\n
Adjustable Ergonomic Stirrup Bar allows effortless horse and rider alignment. This design allows the rider to alter the positioning of the stirrup bar, resulting in complete control over his or her preferred riding position.<\/p>\n
Y-Girthing system enables customized adjustments for the horse\u2019s individual conformation. It maximizes saddle stability as it secures the saddle from both front and rear.<\/p>\n
QUICK-CHANGE Girth Points offer peace of mind that the girth points can be fitted to factory standard throughout the life of the saddle. This girth system also allows customization by a saddler or saddle fitter. The unique design ensures the girth points are highly durable and ultra slim-profile, which supports a close contact feel and increased comfort for horse and rider.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
