Looking for an alternative saddle. At the moment i have a Barnsby and whilst it is a nice saddle it is too heavy and i am fed up of carrying it about all the time.

I am going to be doing a lot of jumping and endurance with my mare and id like something which isnt heavy. What are very light saddles? Not sure what the lightest saddle is but id like to hear suggestions. I have seen a saddle which is 3kg but it is far too expensive. I would like a synthetic saddle suggestion please.
 
think most synthetics should be lighter than the leather ones.
All things being equal I rate thorrowgood much more highly than wintec, though obv it all just comes down to what fits your horse well.
I'd give your saddler a ring and get them to bring a few out for you to try.
