i have an old falcon event and its really nice, comfy! the kneeroles arent massive, so mayeb not ideal if you are jumping great heights, but it does the job and suits me

Used to have a falcon event and it was fab. I was so upset when it didn't fit my new horses.

Oooo My God, I feel very old fashioned but I have an *old* Falcon Osprey Jumping saddle and I have to say it is one of the nicest saddles ever to ride in, aside from my Prestige Golden Star (which was twice the price secondhand!) I would buy another one like a shot if I could get hold of one. I have done dressage to Medium in mine.
The new ones are nice,but I still prefer my old saddle.
*now toddling off to ebay to see whats on offer*

beware because they are popular there are a lot of Eastern European fakes around - still OK saddles but the fit is not consistent. I have one that I bought off ebay - new saddle at about £350. All Falcon saddles have a code number on them and Falcon will tell you when it was made/sold etc the code number on my copy was from a 10 year old saddle. It was not the correct tree and did not fit the horse I bought it for, However, it fits another horse perfectly so I didn't feel too bad.

They are one of the most comfy saddles I have had my bum in. They are a real GP though and not great for jumping great hights. But if its a GP your after, they are one of the best!

From a saddler's point of view, they are good saddles, you won't be disappointed!
