Light Jumping Saddles........

[Hattikins]

Ok well i was just wondering whether any of you from your own personal experience knew which companies make light sjing and eventing saddles, and who makes typically heavy saddles??

I know it differs from style to style but in general who has the lightest and who makes the heaviest saddles on the market??

oh and this does NOT include synthetic saddles

Gonig on personaly experience - my Barnsby Schokemohle CC jumping is very light and my old Stubben SJ saddle weighed a ton!

My Jeffries Flyover weighs 4 kilos my stirrups are heavier. My old Albion dressage was quite heavy as is Tanks Lovatt & Ricketts GP

No idea really but my devoucoux chiberta does not weigh very much, never actually weighed it but lighter than other jump saddles I have.

My bates is the lightest saddle I've ever had, and the heaviest saddle I've ever picked up was a Keiffer gp - horrible thing.

I agree prestige very light! My Bates is heavy, but not as heavy as Stubben!!!

YAY. Not feeling so bad about my riding weight now!
I have a Prestige for Sov which is very light, and a Falcon Osprey for Touchy which is also quite light. My mum has a Stubben which is really nice but it weighs a ton!
