Maybe be more specific - which one? The Momentum or the Caprilli?

I had a caprilli but have recently swapped to the momentum. I did love the caprilli while I had it and it made feel very secure but had to change it when I bought Ru as the deep seat didn't help me with his exuberant jumping technique and I needed a flatter seat.
The only problem I found with the caprilli was that the seat was fairly firm and wasn't too comfy for long distance rides. The newer version may have improved though.

I have the caprilli close contact and really like it. It is certainly my favourite 'off the peg' jumping saddle! I have competed upto CCI* in it no problems, which is saying alot as I am very fussy about saddles and am a bit of a 'saddle snob'!

I like it, it makes you feel secure and is a very comfortable cut without being too holding. I've got one but only got a months use out of it and then sold the horse without it, so if anyone's looking for one 17" in black with a full set of bars let me know.
