I think they're very good, mine has never caused problems of any sort

I would love a solution if I had the money the one I once tried was amazing and I don't think I've ever heard anything bad about them

Sensation, I use a 'jump' for dressage on a big tb (with shims) and sj and xc on a 14.1 coblet as well as the usual hacking and schooling.
Love Love love mine.

Can you trial solution saddles at all.

 

[TigerTail]

You used to be able to - best thing is to get in touch and ask them!

Just come back from a mad xc day, 10 miles, loads of fences and i am even more in love with my sensation, b1s back isn't even swollen - she has a mahoosive history of problems but loves to jump so I have to 'listen' carefully for discomfort signs, none today at all! I am not brave but I really feel secure in this, even explored some of the larger fences. I've also been accepted as a UK rep for them eek excited!

Solution Saddles - 100%.

 

[dickybobx]

do you have a solution and does it fit any horse

 

[Kokopelli]

I have a solution freestyle dressage and have ridden quite a range of horses in it by just playing around with shims and numnahs. It's gone on a pretty hefty cob to my incredibly fine pony to my old boy with a dipped back and massive withers.

 

[dickybobx]

thanks. do you feel they go better in this saddle

I really rate my two Solution Saddles. I've never had any problems with mine and have been using them for four years now. I have one horse which goes much better in a Solution Saddle than anything else, and the other has only ever been ridden in them.

They don't just "fit" any horse, they do need to be fitted correctly. When people just assume they can throw them on any horse and go, that's when problems arise - different models do suit different horses more. I would definitely recommend you have a trial - at £50.00 per week and have a fitter out to get it all set up for you.

thanks for your help. thats really useful.. do you feel they go bettetr in them

 

[Capriole]

I have a solutions. I use it on a range of horses but no, it doesn't suit everything, what does? I've only had one horse though, that it didn't suit, out of all the horses I've used it on.
Never had any problems with mine, nor heard of any (did read of a problem on here but it turned out not to be the saddle after all).

 

[dickybobx]

your correct. I am trying to get someone to to come try one on my horses. aww really was the problem there? back out?

 

[Capriole]

Wither and back conformation didn't suit. Huge high withers coupled with a bit of a sway back and muscle atrophy to add to the list. I could have gone to town with heavy duty amounts of shimming but the fit/balance would never have been satisfactory.

I love it on other horses though.

Great thanks.I am tempted to get it tried on my andalusian x tb. My other mare Micah prefers her Heather Moffett. But I can't get away with Riding in them
