Could someone give me some info on a WoW dressage Saddle

[Dressagebabe]

Could anyone tell me whether the Wow Dressage saddles tend to sit low on the horse's back ie high at the pommel and low at the cantle. I understand with conventional saddles they should be fairly equal from the side view with pommel and cantle but I have purchased a Wow and it seems to sit rather low on the back and much higher at the Pommel even though the headplate width is good from my horse.

Not sure if this helps, but they do sink down a bit in front once you've got on, so when you're riding, they're lower than when they're just girthed up?

No, I am sorry it sounds your fit is wrong, I have a wow dressage saddle & it is as level as any other saddles I have, you need to get to a good fitter out i think,

My wow sits level on his back...... it's one of the reasons I got it, as everything else sloped!

Our wow sits level but David did take some air out of the front to give the horse more freedom in the shoulders.Has it been fitted by a good wow fitter, it is very important that it is right

I think I will get the saddle back out as I am not happy with the way it sits, thanks for your help

It was fitted by our local saddler that went on a Wow fitting course but I have my doubts so I think I will contact wow tomorrow and find out our local one.

If you go onto the First Thought Equine site it gives you the names and contacts of local fitters.

Mine sits level too.
