We bought a Wintec 2000 A/P last year. My
opinion is that the saddle is good for all around riding, and is fairly
comfortable, but I found that my feet were too far in front of me and that the
saddle lacks stability on my horse and stability for the trail. I'm
finding that the "feet too far in front of me" thing is common to most English
saddles I've tried, and therefore may be a fault with my own equitation rather
than due to the Wintec setup--others may chime in on this and feel
differently.
The saddle is a beautiful saddle (or, was,
until my wife's unbroken horse reared in it and went over backwards--with no
rider on), but not my first choice for Endurance. I'd buy it again for
general riding.
Lesson learned: tell wife to not break a horse with
a nice saddle on its back...
