RE: [RC] [RC] supracor - Libby & Quentin LlopWe
have been using and selling supracor pads for 21/2 years. They are so superior
to other pads that we never saddle a horse without one. Between us we have
completed 2,950 competition miles with supracors with all "A"s on our back
scores. We use the coolgrips without covers, both Hunter jumper and endurance.
In addition to going from 3/4" to zero every time the horses shoulder blade
swings back and needs the room, the squishing cells act as an air pump over the
entire back.
On some high, long withered horses the pad
will rub the back of the withers, this is easily solved by cutting out a window
there, won't hurt the pad at all. My husband is a vet/chiropractor and
recommends this pad to most of his clients. The entire staff of our hunt use
them.
On the subject of the seat savers- If my
husband does a 50 without one, he can barely walk from back pain the next day,
with one- no pain at all. The 62 yr. old woman that rents a foxhunter from me
three days a week does not want to see the horse get off the trailer without her
"tushie cushie".
The pads are guaranteed against breakdown
for 2 years and while they are expensive (I sell them for quite a bit less then
Recommended retail) I feel the benefits more than justify the cost.
