Dressage saddle for short legs!

[Fiorano]

I am only 5'2" (at a push) and ride a 14.2 pony. Now I have a dilema. I need to buy a dressage saddle that has good thigh rolls (legs can shoot forward of their own accord), but isn't too long in the flap. Can anyone reccommend me one please.

You could try a Fhoenix Vogue - you can have shorter flaps made, but also the flaps are made of really soft leather and so you have good leg contact all the way down. They also have adjustable/removable knee rolls and different sizes, so could be a good option for you?

Ive got 3 antill dressage saddles which do have the shorter flaps, im only 5'3 & ive used them on my 14.2 arab. If you do look for one make sure you go for an older one as i think they are better made.

I have a lovely Black Albion SL short flap, 17", MW, was on a 14.2 connie type who has now been sold so it is in need of a new home!

im only 4.11 and ride a big 16.1 i ride her in a ideal jessica and my saddler made the flaps slightly shorter as they was quiet short to start with he has also done this to a friends isabell werth saddle.
