Well, my Rocky Mountain gelding is just about through with his growth spurts, and I'm eyeing new saddles.
I have to say the Free N Easy is the best saddle IMO. John Parke uses them too on his gaited Icelandics. I use it on my very hard to fit gaited Morgan. It has flex panels so moves with her.Her back changed very rapidly with condition and I was able to adjust the saddle accordingly. I tried, bought and sold at least 10 saddles before choosing this one. Marlene at Moss Rock let me try it for a MONTH (though after a couple rides in it I bought it!). In fact, I'm going to get another one for my arab!
Now that I have seen how much a back can change with conditioning I will never by a solid treed saddle again.
