    Wow fitters who carry/fit other stock in SW

    As title. Need to get our Wow saddle fits checked but for various reasons wanted to also try some other brands for comparison on one of the girls. Does anyone know if any really good Wow fitters that also stock and fit other saddles (Albion, Barnsby, Black Country, Ideal etc...)?

    Lightweight turnout without cross surcingles

    That's current plan B! Was just trying to avoid cannibalising a new rug as I got rid of her old lightweight so need to buy a new one anyway. Unfortunately she has a sarcoid right where the surcingles cross...

    Lightweight turnout without cross surcingles

    I'm trying to track down a lightweight rug without cross surcingles similar to this but in 1200D waterproof version... http://www.weatherbeeta.co.uk/products/fly-sheets/weatherbeeta-airflow-combo (standard neck rather than comb) I've got the weatherbeeta 3 in 1 heavyweight...

    Those with Jin (or similar) stirrups...

    Sorry - I meant front to back not between the arms. My bad for not explaining very well! Lol! Trying to compare with a different pair of irons I've seen...

    Help me find a riding hat!

    Uvex and LAS are pretty pricey and if going down that route would probably go back to PROtector... Lec - that's great! If they fit then it might just be perfect. I wonder if they'll be out to try at the BD Winters?? Sportsman - tried the Ayr8 last summer and it just didn't fit! I think I...

    Selling, or finding a rider for a complex horse - thoughts?

    It also depends on what makes him "quirky". What is it that he does? What issues do you have on a normal day? You say you have to ride him tactfully but what does this actually mean? Does he accept the hand? Leg? Does he buck? Rear? Spin? What triggers his quirky behaviors and how do you manage...

    Dressage lesson and a trip to Leyland's arena cross country!

    Ahhh, she is SUCH a little superstar!! I can't believe how well she went both dressage and xc but you have to stop showing me up - you're not meant to make it look so easy compared to me on a recently off the track 4yo! Lol!

    Help me find a riding hat!

    Will try to find somewhere with a uvex to try too then (BD winters maybe???) although at £170 I'd probably revisit the PROtector as pretty £££ when I have 2 hats that fit perfectly well!! Lec - where did you try the air tech if you don't mind me asking? I can only find black online and would...

    Help me find a riding hat!

    Thanks... Don't like the leather look of the Caldene unfortunately and the non leather version is only available in black (probably should have said I wanted navy!), would need to try the champion on but their ventair was way to perched, wobbled ridiculously even when completely tight and came...

    Omega Rice

    Nik - she already gets a large (probably not far off pint sized) mug of micronised linseed in each feed. Re the AlfaA - tills is fine with alfabeet, fine with the Winergy, fine with mollichaff alfalfa but the dengie AlfaA - she literally becomes the spawn of Satan over night!!! I have no idea...

    Help me find a riding hat!

    Riding under that funny warm yellow thing in the sky today reminded me that before the warmer weather set in this year I really do need to invest in a lightweight ventilated hat... My current hat is a Gatehouse skull (HS1 I think - it has a leather harness??) and it fits perfectly. I...

    Will also suggest k tries the fenugreek! Anything's worth a shot if it makes it tasty for her ;)
