Tell me about Crosby saddles?

[sidesaddlegirl]

I'm eyeing one up (a jumping close contact one). Can't try it as it's on the net. What sort of horse do they tend to fit? I have a high withered, narrow shouldered TB with a good topline (so need flattish panels) who usually takes a narrow/medium to medium.

Any opinions or experience with them?

I have a nice crosby GP that actually came with my horse. Just had it all reflocked as apparently it wasn't sitting quite right however it was only as it was over flocked.
She is a narrow shouldered average withered TB. I would say give it a try If it needs altering then speak to Ruth at RS saddles in Sharnford. She was fantastic.

Don't think I could get this one flocked up as it has the foam close contact panels.

Ah that's a shame. They are nice saddles though.

I used to event in mine - on a 7/8 TB, loved it.
