Re: [RC] [Guest] Wintec Isabelle Dressage Saddles for - Ridecamp Moderator

Vicki Austin <kingston04281@xxxxxxxxx>
Christina,  alot of people have good luck with the
"regular"treed saddles.    I my self had good luck
with three horses on Long distance with dressage and
all purpose saddles.  The horse I have now was a bear
to fit.  His back seems normal enough but every single
saddle I got over the first two years made a boo boo
somewhere on his back.  I even sent one away and had
it proffesionally stuffed to template and spent a lot
of money on it.  After about 50 miles it made a boo
boo.   I tried six saddles in the first two years.
All were ok in the ring, over jumps and on "short"
rides of 25 - 50 miles but after that or if I rode in
them for consecutive days boo boo would apper.    I
finally got a Sport Saddle (hated the looks)  hated
the feel at first BUT that was five years ago and he
has yet to have any sort of boo boo, sore back or
anything.  I use just the wool pads under with no
special air,jell,polymer,weave or anything else.   I
would still use my dressage saddle for showing but
that is all.    I now find out that a lot of people
cannot use the treeless saddles on their horses
so......................it is so individual.   You
just have to try it to see is all you can do.   Good
luck.
