flock or cair?

[parsley]

I am thinking about buying a Wintec pro - I have the VSD with cair and am quite happy with it but the saddle I am looking at has flocking - does the flocked version need a lot more upkeep and checking than the cair - currently i just need to use the gullet guage regularly?

can you get them reflocked and do you need to? I can't find anything about the flocked version on the wintec website

after recent experience with flair, and what i've heard about cair, i think i'd stick to flocking or foam in panels tbh.

Think flair needs checking regularly but you can't top up cair and I had problems ,so I would perfer flock

Flock everytime

I have two saddles, both Wintec. The dressage is flock, the Wide is cair, I think the flock works better for us, at least, the dressage slips around less than the the Wide.
