Saddle debate please humour me maybe ...

[Cullohill]

of course i said yuck!! it has to be an Ideal saddle (www.idealsaddle.com) and don't forget we can make any modifications you like longer/shorter flaps more forward cut, modified panels, extra deep rear gussets a cross breed of any of our saddles the list is endless - but my main point would be get a qualified fitter out to ensure you get a saddle that fits both you and your horse!
maybe a GPD cut would suit you (it falls between GP and VSD cut)

Hi Druid good suggestion

but if I am going to spend the money I want it to be right - you know.

Also I would be a bit worried regarding the safety of doing that lol call me a worrier

[Cullohill]

only a month!?! well we quote 5-6 weeks from order date, we don't hold any stock because they fly out the door too quick!! hopefully you'll have it very soon!! and i know what you mean about impatience i will be following mine round the workshop i have already been into cutting room to 'select' my leather hehehe

No safety issues according to my saddler...

However, if you're buying brand new definitely go for something "perfect"!!

Totally agree with Tierra. Stirrup bars very far forward in Stubben. I remember when I was doing my stage 3 my instructor telling me I had to work so hard on my lower leg - because I had always used Stuben saddles. When I changed saddle it made such a difference. Before that I felt that i would dislocate my hip before my leg was in the correct position.
