Okay, coming out of lurking again. Got a weird question about my
skito pads which I love and seems to do my horses back well for the most
part. However,
my horse is losing some hair from some rubbing quite abit away from the
back of the saddle..maybe 4 inches? I have a synergist saddle, did the
equimeasure, they refitted it to my horse and it fits beautifully, no rocking,
she moves out very well, shoulders free, but...the pad itself is rubbing (seems
to be up and down hills) this area several inches behind the saddle area.
I'm thinking it may have to do with her comformation...She is a well put
together horse, well balanced, great feet, good muscling, but she has that
slightly higher rear end and she doesn't have a long back.
any thoughts? ideas on this? The pad otherwise left a perfect sweat
pattern, no dry spots, clean and dry over the spine and she moves like she
doesn't even have a saddle/rider on her so she's not hindered in anyway, and is
extremely strong and fresh after a training ride...trying to figure this
out.
