The Equipedic is a great pad! I have
two of them. I loaned one to our daughter to ride the Swanton Pacific 75
this year. At the end, the vets pronounced that her horse's back showed NO
signs of soreness. She told me the horse had always some sign of a sore
back during competitions.
Richard Sacks is the creator of this pad and
I do believe he is proud of it. I've told him many times how much I
like mine.
Having lifted Kanakos saddle (its 60 lbs and a
Sharon Saare i believe) and to see how it carried the weight and never once
during the day slipped or allowed for uneven pressure(that i observed) the
EquiPedic Pad looks to be a good one under extreme conditions and the maker
should be proud in its creation and construction.
Yes, Kanako should receive the Off Continent
Silver.
I have noticed a few errors and one is the
Central Team got Bronze and Pacific North got Silver at the awards
presentation.
Darolyn finished 11th on Caution TNT (Powder) and
CeCi had a ROM at Gate 2. ts
