Ideal Impala?

[EllieBeast]

Does anyone have one of these saddles? are you pleased with it? is it comfortable enough to hack in?
Ive heard good things about them, and have ordered one made to measure for my incredibly hard to fit horse (so a bit late if you all hate it!

). Pretty pointless post, but would be grateful of any opinions.

I have one for Jerry and absolutly love it! Best saddle I've ridden in.

Yes, i have one, absolutely love it, fits my tricky mare perfectly, and has really helped my position. it's very comfy for hacking out... i asked for extra foam on the seat to make it even comfier, and extra foam in the knee panels, and they did those for me too.

Naughty girl LW......think you should have had a Springbok!

Ive got the Springbok, quickly becoming a fan of the Ideal saddles

Cheers guys, its sounding good so far!
D_D, lol! i thought you would have been pushing the VSD!

I had the Springbok and I LOVED it - sadly I had to sell it as it refused to fit P

 

[EllieBeast]

i saw you in the ideal brochure! lol! The springbok is a more sj/close contact saddle isnt it?
lets hope this one sorts the beast out, i dont know what to try if not!!

 

[Weezy]

LOL yep I am in there! Yes it is close contact and a real SJ/XC saddle. I would highly recommend ALL Ideal saddles, have never sat on an uncomfortable one

Cheers! Even if the monster doesnt manage to jump again, hopefully it will be well fitting enough for her, and comfortable enough for her rider to hack and mess around in. Although she doesnt have that option, she will get better! (or shes being threatened with having to do stressage, im not sure how happy she would be with that!)

Not a jump saddle but I have an Ideal dressage saddle which I love to peices ... I will be looking for a jump saddle later as I am so chuffed with the make.
