I’m at a loss, please help! I currently have an Albion jumping saddle that came with my horse. It has been fitted and checked regularly and suits him well. BUT I am finding it increasingly unsuited to the way I ride. I mostly do hacking, endurance and pleasure rides, the longer the better. I’m finding that my leg position is too far forward and I am constantly adjusting myself to bring my legs back underneath me. I have decided a new saddle is a priority. Obviously it has to fit my horse, but must be comfortable for me too.
Ideally I’d like an endurance saddle, and have searched around to see what is available. But how on earth do I choose? Second hand ones seem few and far between, Saddlery stores seem to supply or stock one brand only, and others (like Strada for instance) only sell direct or via the web. Ideally I’d like to try several different types, but how can I do that without traveling all over the place? How did you decide on your saddle? And does anyone on here have an endurance saddle?
