Hi all,

So, Sensation Saddles, just wondered who has one, or has ridden in one and what you think of them ..... thank you ..... Celebrations tin is open, help yourselves :)
 
I have one its a dressage trail, I bought it off ebay about 5 years ago, they are fab. It is the best treeless saddle I have ever ridden in I do lots of long distance riding and never get a sore bum in it. They have a twist so dont feel wide like most treeless, I use mine on a fjord a fjord x and a mw cob, none have prominent withers. I have tried trekker talent, trekker pro endurance, and a torsion I did not find them a patch on the sensation.
 
Thank you :)

I have tried a number of treeless saddles, but i`ve always liked the look of the Sensation saddles. What is the best pad to use under them? I would guess they need a shimmable pad?
 
I have a skito pad which is shimmed, the saddle also has pockets on the underside which has shims in. I have also used a Le Meux pad with shims under it.
 
You are a star. :)

Do you know where the blue shims go? .... In the pocket under the saddle there are a couple of white shims (1 either side), and then a built in black/foam shim thing ...... but i also got some long blue shims as extra ones with the saddle, do they fit in the pocket to the top (so nearest the ridders bum) or do they go at the bottom of the pocket (next to the hoses back) or does it not matter lol .... thanks for your help on this :)
 
I love mine, I compete in it and b1 will happily pop 110 in it although I'm not brave any bigger at moment
B2 moves so much better in it than in anything else and its seriously comfy.

I don't have extra shims I have separate pad but Nickers are seriously helpful.
 
A friend has one of these and I have ridden in it. It was lovely, my best riding experience. I would love one but they are serious money.
 
I know There is some blue shims in mine and some white ones, but not sure think they are at the bottom (nearest Horses back) will check tom for you as saddle is in garage.
