Pessoa Legacy Saddle

[Helena88]

does anyone have a pessoa legacy saddle? pic

and can you tell me how much you paid? just for comparisson!

Nope I tried one but opted for the Bates momentum instead because of the flexibility of changing the fit. I think the one I tried was for 1300.

Lovely saddle though!!

ive ridden in a pessoa - personally i thought it was the most uncomfortable thing ever, but mayb thats cause im used to my albion dressage. But even my cheap Kes seemed comfortable compared to it!

heehee, yes very different to your dressage!! I have ridden in a ridiculously uncomfortable Pessoa too, but depends which model you get!! The Legacy isn't bad, the original all leather one is VERY hard and uncomfortable!! Much prefer my bates to that!!

ive ridden in other pessoas which i v. much liked.. just never this model before.

Nope will correct that, just looked at my "saddle list", you can get it for about 950 on the internet.

i think i rode in an all leather one, it was awful either way, totally put me off them!

 

[KatB]

I know what you mean, they can feel a bit hard on the old bum!!

i've found one for approx £800 over here (belgium)

Thats cool!! Cheapest I've found here is 867 I think... just been hunting!!

I was once very interested in a Pessoa saddle and was told by quite a few people that a lot of horses get bad backs probably because of the close contact. But i don't know whether this is true or not.
