Im looking to buy an Albion saddle for my horse, i already have a dressage saddle so Im looking for a jumping saddle. I have tried the k2 and loved this but havent tried the kontact or kontrol models. My dressage saddle is a medium but the Albions seem to be wider so I was considering a N-M fit.. My dressage saddle is 17" so should i look for a jumping saddle of the same seat size or should i got for 171/2 for jumping. Any advice appreciated
 
My albion dressage saddle is an old Legend and is an 18" medium, my GP is a newer K2 Legend and is a 17.5 medium fir. Interstingly enough, tried a friends 17'5 medium dressage saddle before purchasing mine and was far to small for me as a rider so went for and 18" in the dressage but my GP fits me really nicely and is 17'5".........Also, my last horse had a 17.5 K2 jump saddle also medium and that fitted me fine too so not sure why I needed larger in the dressage...

The deeper the seat the smaller it will become so a deep seated dressage saddle will come up a size smaller than a flatter seated gp or jump saddle (for the rider that is)
