Saddle pad to replace Impakt pad

[puddleshark]

My mare is prone to nodules under the saddle. I'm looking for a gel-type saddle pad to go under a Free and Easy endurance saddle with extra-wide panels. I've been using an Impakt pad (one of the big rectangular ones) for years and it's been perfect, but it's beginning to fall apart and they seem to have gone out of production. Anyone know of anyone manufacturing large (thin) gel or foam pads?

I use accupressure gel pads by Mark Todd. Its brilliant. My horses seem to go much better in them as well.

I have a limpet pad, similar to the impakts but I don't think as good.

with my GP I had problems with the bit under the saddle flaps slipping back during fast work/jumping, though that might just be my saddle. I cut those bits off and just use it like a prolite pad shape now!

Ditto - I use one with my GP and the impakt ones are fantastic. I got my last one on Ebay but a good alternative is the Barnsby grip pad..... Wish someone would start making impakt pads again
