But what to get. my saddle that i used to have on Millie fits Twizzle but it just looks a bit like a pea on a drum lenght ways. I have a hawk event at the moment, dont know if i should get the same or go for a different make? and ideas? or what you lot ride in.
thanks

Depends what you want! I personally am not keen on GP/Event types, so have got a single flap jump saddle. If you get on well with the one youve got and it fits, I would stick with it for a while

agree with KatB if it fits both of you stick with it for now

if you are going to get another GP i always liked my albion selecta where you could change the knee rolls (i evented upto novice BE with that)

but it was no comparison to a jump saddle so depends if you have the budget to be able to get a jumping and dressage/gp saddle?

Hope Twizzle's settling in to her new home ok

I just bought a Pessoa Amo, I've alway wanted a pessoa but then I'm not a fan of knee blocks for jumping : ) I guess my legs/seat/position aren't too bad but if I had my friends superman position I would rethink!! I find close contacts fit horses very well too : ) We will look pretty daft doing dressage this summer until I either save up for a dressage saddle or horse is ready to be out jumping....

I have a Fusion Saddle, the Amethyst one! Its super, i am a huge fan, they look super smart and are comfortable and secure to ride in, bargain at £600!
 
I have a John whittaker saddle, the smooth french leather and it's totally worth it's money.. fits my horse perfect and my horse goes %1000 better init
