[RC] need saddle opinions - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: simoniek m_2_0_0_4 or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

Hi,

What saddle would you recommend for long-distance riding.
Horse is a thoroughbred, long hind leg, croup little higher then front. I have 
been riding for 2 months without saddle and/or trying out different saddles. 
Cannot find a good fit. What fits best untill now is KN but is not an option 
for long distance and not a perfect fit. Hopfner VSS is also good but is 
unbelievably expensive.
Can you give some opinions on Torsion, Podium ROC,continental equiflex,and 
Kentaur.
I realise it is a bit of a personal matter but it would help!!
Since I have been riding bareback a lot all saddles seem to float to me at the 
moment I did like the treeless Torsion. BUt the problem seems to be the 
pressure-points it creates on the side of the horse when riding longer 
distances.

Thanks,
Simoniek
