[RC] Ortho/Reactor-P/etc - Ridecamp GuestPlease Reply to: Ray O'Donohue rno2m@xxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Alan: Just a few observations/opinions that may be helpful:The price you must pay for placing any flex apparatus/suspension between the saddle tree and the horse,is increased distance between yourself and the horse.For me,that rules that type of saddle out right there.The flexible bar saddle trees do not present this problem,but may cause other problems.If you really like that Tucker,I would suggest,if possible,that you attempt some "tuning" with it and the set-up of pad/rigging/etc.If you are seeing SOME tiny bit of bridging when the horse is standing,that not be a bad thing(?),for the horse is not rounded when you check this while standing. And those bars can readily be cut/shortened at the back if neccesary and you really like the saddle.How about a Skito pad? They WORK! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
