I have seen a WOW Competitor saddle advertised and just wanted to know what people thought of them??
It has eventing seat and flaps, but I don't understand all the stuff and headplates etc...
Pleeeeeease could someone be very kind and tell me about them
Thank you
 
I personally don't like them, but loads of people love them, they are like marmite you either love them or hate them. You will need a very good saddle fitter if you buy one, as fitting problems is the main problem I had with mine (despite using a Wow fitter, and having it made specifically for me and my horse). Do a search on the threads on here, I think quite a few will come up, with many different opinions.
 
I love them! I have two and wouldnt change them for any other saddle. They are well worth the money IMO.

Have a look at the first thought equine website-

This will explain alot.

You really do need to find a good fitter though. Its not as simple as buying any saddle. Its not so much the seat and flaps, which are for you but there are lots of different panel types and you need to get the right ones for your horse. If the panels are wrong you cant make the saddle fit by adjusting it.
 
See?! Marmite. I can't think of any other saddle that elicits such a strong response. I dont like them but others on the yard do!
