Re: [RC] [RC-Digest] Vol: 03.4681 wintec saddle - Mike LewisThe new saddles... at least our all-purpose saddle... has blocks we can add/move as desired. Might be a little more secure than the saddle you used. That is impressive durability...

The only place it wore out was where the stirrup leathers rubbed holes in the flap. I loved its light weight and minimal care. However, there is really no support--no knee rolls, no thigh blocks; I'd be very sore after hilly rides, and it's also not very secure. In fact, I switched to a deep-seated American-Flex after a couple spectacular ejections when riding my new and very green horse. Bottom line...even though it is a "cheap" saddle, I feel it really stood up to the very heavy use I put on it. It's just not the most comfy saddle in the world.
