So we're in the market for a dressage saddle. Thought I had it sussed with either the K&M S Series or the T8 but wasn't a fan on the S Series and the T8 is out of stock so our saddler is chasing up when the earliest delivery will be.
In the meantime I was chatting with one of the liveries, who was shocked just how much I was planning to spend on the secondhand K&M/T8 and suggested we look at secondhand Bates. I've since spotted an extremely reasonably priced Innova in our size and am tempted to take a punt on it as can always part ex/sell if it isn't right for us, but I'm confused as to whether I need the standard or extended contourbloc. I've read conflicting advice online as to which is for the longer-legged rider, so please can someone clear it up for me?
