RE: [RC] re: RP and pads - David LeBlancI've had half a mind to talk to Skito and see if they would be offended by taking a Supracor pad and putting it inside one of their covers, or even cut the Supracor right down the center, then put it inside the cover. Our normal, thick Skito squirts out from under the RP, esp. in hilly terrain, in no time - but I really like the way the covers are made. Maybe a thin pad Skito? Just checked out Supracor's site - they apparently have covers for the "Cool Grip" pads now. In terms of taking scissors to the Supracor, I'm wondering just how far to cut and where. I'm also wondering how to trim out the rough edges. IMHO, Supracor has some great material, but they're not as smart about horse pads as they could be. I did have one of their covered "endurance" pads, and it was too small to fit under any of our endurance saddles >8-/ The zipper had to be 1/2 unzipped, or it would chew up the bottom of the saddle. -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cindy Collins Sent: Wednesday, November 12, 2003 8:50 AM To: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [RC] re: RP and pads Lysane-you really don't need or want a thick pad under your RP...that might negate all the great things about how the panels work. As I've said, it's laziness on my part that I'm just searching for a way to keep my panel pads clean and not have to wash them so often. Becky R., I have used a wire dog brush and it does help, but I don't like what it does to the "nap" of the wool and once again...I am back to laziness! I'd just like something underneath that I can just shake or hose off. I think that I'm just going to have to cough up the $240 for a supracor pad and then (Oh my goodness) take the scissors to it. Seems like the best option. Cindy =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
