Freejump saddles

[Vodkagirly]

I've seen a freejump saddles for sale locally and wondered what people's opinions of them were?
It would be for light hacking/ schooling as my 4 year old still looks like he has a bit of growing to do and thought a treeless might be a better option in the short term.

I've not heard of them but the general consensus is, if it's a cheap brand, avoid. Spreading the weight from stirrup bars needs decent materials.

Never heard of freejump treeless saddles either. I know there's a Freemax, which is cheap rubbish, and a Freeform which is about £1k new.

I dont think freejump make saddle, only saddle pads and stirrups

Thanks for comments, it's advertised as freejump but sellers can make mistakes.... it is cheap hence why I thought might work in short term
Would add a picture but keeps saying file too big

Cheap treeless are a bargepole job, short term or no.

You can edit the photo elsewhere (app on your phone?) and make it smaller then submit it.
