Re: RC: Billet length?

[Jerry Kopp <jkopp@ohio.net>]

I've had my Solstice for over two years now - LOVE IT!!  Go with the long
billets.  It gets all that bulk out from under your leg - and you aren't
always pressing a buckle into your horses side.  I use a Roma gel girth -
dressage length, it has elastic on the buckles on each end to equailize the
pressure and is about 4 - 5 inches wide which helps distribute the pressure
as well.  Cleans up with water - just hose off.  Plus, if you change your
mind after trying the dressage length,  the billets are already set up for
the shorter length/longer girth, you could just trim them.  Good luck with
your new saddle, you will really like the ride!
