Gel PAds?

[Skhosu]

Ok, so we have a prolite pad, a polypad and several other numnahs sitting in the tack room as they failed to help with my boys saddle fitting problems.
His problem is he is the oddest shape ever, and he has a fitted saddle etc, but it sits on his withers. I use a 'fluffy' half pad currently and this works ok.
Was wondering if anyone had any experience of those ge; eeze pads? The blue meshy ones?
Or the white ones with like blue gelly points on them? (not sure of technical words!

I have the Stephens Gel-eze pad - it's clear square stuff with lots of little holes in.

I brought it because my Arab is very round and the saddle slips - it has worked a treat... it won't raise the front of the saddle though as it's very thin and lightweight

A girl at our livery yard buys and sells ponies and found if the had not been ridden for while then she started to work them they would get a bit sore, she uses a gel girth sleeve and a gel pad and the ponies are fine.

Hi, I have used the Gel Eze pad before quite successfully when my girl had lost lots of weight and conswequently saddle started slipping a bit (thsi was before I discovered I had Fish system ...doh!) ; it does not really alter the fit of the saddle though it is more to help prevent saddle slipping and bounces off impact from saddle on back I would say ...

I have a prolite and love it - My horse is a typical TB with high withers when I first started him off he had to have a rear raiser but now the prolite does the job.
