Asymmetrical horse flair / korrector Help!

[Catherine123]

My asymmetrical horses saddle slips to the left so i bought him a korrector pad until he evens up but i am really confused as to which bags i need to inflate? In the booklet it seems to say left front and rear right but I emailed FTE & they told me front right and rear left

I used to have Flair and I always had the saddler out to balance it for me. I use a Korrector type thing for my western saddle and I ask the saddler to do that too - in my head fitting the interface between horse and saddle is just as important as fitting the saddle itself so I would be worried about doing it wrong.

I had a korrector pad as my saddle slipped to the left too. I put more air in the left front but really it was trial and error. You are supposed to mount and then pump it up and it should naturally fill in the right gaps. It did work for my mare, but getting a saddle with a wider baring area worked better! My mare has good withers but is a wide and flat backed warmblood and I found the Pessoa Blyth Tait fitted her a treat and didn't slip to the side. I now have a thoroughbred whose saddle also tips to the left. However, I realised it was his right shoulder that was slightly better developed (due to an injury in his left hind) and so changing to a dressage saddle has done the trick with him.

Good luck!
