Flexible Aluminium Arch

A flexible aluminium arch in the pommel section of the detachable seat provides a self adjusting fit to suit a variety of horse shapes. It aids wither clearance and adjusts automatically with both the movement and shape of the horse. Freeform saddles are totally tree-free, with flexibility throughout the entire saddle, but do not collapse in the pommel arch over time and use.

When transferring your saddle from a very wide bodied horse to a narrow horse, simply remove the detachable seat (which is attached with very strong Velcro), gently squeeze the pommel arch together, and then re-fix the seat to your saddle base. The pommel will automatically adjust to the shape of the horse.

Adjustable stirrups attachment

A fully adjustable stirrup position allows the rider to place their stirrups so the ideal shoulder- hip-heel alignment can be easily attained. This adjustable stirrup attachment is designed to allow different stirrup positions, from jumping to classical dressage. An adjustable stirrup attachment allows each rider to adjust their own stirrup placement in the easiest way. All D rings/buckles used are stainless steel.

Velcro parts are made of the best high performance Velcro.

Girthing

The self adjusting girthing system is a self-swinging arrangement and fit most horse conformations, this positions the girth automatically in the girth groove irrespective of where the saddle is placed on the horse.

The internal section of the girthing is set on a “Y” system to help distribute the pressure over the bearing area of the saddle and assist in saddle stability.
This design also ensure that the stirrup and girthing arrangement do not attach at the same point, thereby preventing pressure from radiating at one point on the horse's back.

The girth straps are made from leather-faced coated Biothane and are English style billets that accept an English dressage girth with 2 buckles.
