Can anyone recommend one? I'm after a 16.5" GP or jumping saddle...
If you find a saddle that you love but it doesn't have point straps, any saddler can add them easily.
Agree that most saddles aimed at wide flat horses will have them, many dressage saddles will also have them. Almost all our models do. But yes, you can have them added - much more work entailed if it needs to be fed under a velcro knee roll I would imagine, but I'm a fitter not a saddler...and as all our have them I've not had to have them added
They don't go under the velcro knee rolls The saddler drops the panels, attaches them to the tree points, makes a slit in the leather at the tree points so he can thread them through, attach panel back and voila, point straps! That is how it's been done on all my saddles, normal and side saddle.
