Am I better off getting a wintec specialist if the CAIR panels in my saddle need adjusting, or can any master saddler do the job?
Can any saddler adjust a wintec with CAIR?

Do you know, I always thought that the Cair panels in Wintecs were sealed and not adjustable. 'Flair' air filled panels are adjustable, but I really didn't think that Cair was.

I think they can put padding behind the CAIR panels to adjust the shape along the horses back....

Any saddler should be able to shove flocking behind the Cair to build up the panels, but that is about it
If considering that I would buy a korrector pad - that way its easier if you ever need to reduce due to change in shape (getting flocking out isn't so easy!)
I would also consider key hole pads if trying to raise up the back (had to do that whilst my baby was growing)

From the Wintec website if its any help....
7. How is my saddle rebalanced if it doesnt have a flock filled panel?
As with all saddles, over time the saddle will settle in and ride down, particularly in the head of the saddle. The saddle may therefore need to be rebalanced by your local stockist by using the CAIR Panel inserts which are placed between the tree of the saddle and the Air panels. As with all saddle fitting services/checks your stockist may charge for this service.

I adjust Wintec saddles, its basically the same as adjusting the flock in a normal saddle that needs a small amount of flock to balance it, the flock goes above the air bags.
