Re: [RC] Tall horses..... oh, and saddle recs..... - Laney HumphreyI do know that the Parelli saddle is made by the Balance company so it should be well designed. I can't imagine sitting on a horse 3 hands taller than mine - more power to you!!!Laney Elizabeth Chase wrote: Well, then, perhaps I should invest in that parachute from the door-to-door salesman after all...... my new rescue is 17.2 1/2 hands ......... he was an eventer (no he'll not be doing distances that I can forsee, lol..... my 15 hand Teke cross is for that) .... his stride at a regular trot is soooooo long..... I can see, though, teaching him how to bow or use his neck to launch me aboard. Not looking forward to practicing emergency dismounts from him, but if I get on, I'd best be able to disembark in a heartbeat. My Teke mare has learned how to yield to me so I can slide over from things like fences and picnic tables (standard mounting block size for the TB, lol). Oh, and I am 5' 4".... Then there's the saddle question..... but before I pester folks, is there a way to search the archives to see what has already been written? Any experience with the Parelli saddles around here? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
