I had the Dressage Monoflap for my WBxISH, big moving shoulders, small but noticable wither & massive paces, think the saddle is called 'Pistache'.
I liked it alot!... Very similar looking to a Childric dressage saddle. & a very good price new for the quality.
Very close contact, very supportive & very deep seated.

The only problem with it was, it was VERY difficult to sell!!
For me its only the mono derssage that looks nice, the dual flaps & all the jumps look abit heavy & unfinished imo.

That's good to here as that's the one I'm looking at for my WB x ID/TB.
Not too fussed about resale value so those are good things to hear. Thx

FRP, would you mind PM'ing me where you sold yours and how much you managed to get for it? I'm trying to sell my cottonwood (TBA - nothing to do with the saddle, more me and the saddle, see reply in C&T) and I'm really gutted as I love it but I don't think it fits me very well and isn't helping me stay on board when my horse has a moment. Would appreciate knowing how realistic my asking price is and where I might be able to sell it. Thanks.
