I've got the Henri de Rivel event saddle for jumping/XC and it's great. I really like it a lot. I bought mine on e-bay and it has been fantastic. Very deep seated and lovely big knee rolls, really holds you in nice and tight!

Here is us in it:

I used to ride a little pony with one and it was a great fit for her ,very comfy and the leather kept pretty well despite not being looked after.

I really liked the pigmalion for show jumping, never had any problems with the leather at all.

i used to have one up to 2 weeks ago,i had my for 4 year,use it every day and rode an average of 8 horses a day and it remained in very good condition.

I don't know about the Henri De Rivel but if it has a very deep seat then you may need to think about that.

Some people absolutely love them but personally I prefer a flatter tree for jumping. Each to their own but make sure you know which camp you are in before you invest in a lovely new saddle!
