WOW saddle questions!

[Beans1]

Hi All,

A few quick questions please?! Who has used a WOW saddle pls? Why did you decide to try WOW, what do you think the benefit of WOW saddles are? Any info, feedback and info on what attracted you to the WOW saddles would be greatly appreciated pls!

Thanks

This would be better posted in General. If you go and do a search you will find a lot of discussions about these saddles, and some very mixed reviews!

Love, love, LOVE my Wow and so does my horse, the difference in her way of going was jaw dropping - and we went to Wow from a top end treeless. It was literally WOW!!!

I changed as I wasn't happy with the way my horse was going and having read up about different options and been intrigued I was lucky enough to borrow a Wow from a friend with a similarly shaped horse and was so impressed I bought one.

I love the flexibility to adapt every part on it as everything is modular and even if you have just one set of flaps you then have two stirrup bars and can angle the flaps to get your position just right depending on what you are doing that session.
Was super impressed at the fine tuning of the fit thanks to the Flair - managing to completely balance to me and to my horse despite the fact I have a crookedness issue due to an accident.

I love the fact it allows her to move freely through the shoulder and has a super large bearing surface to dissipate pressure, meaning she can fully use her back.

I find the seat very comfortable and it gives me a great position. In 30 years of riding I've never been as impressed with a saddle as I am with these. I've also had superb service from both my fitter and FTE themselves.

So massive thumbs up from a very happy Wow user here.

On the other hand my trainer can't get on with the seat, it gives her backache, I have heard horror stories about rubbish fitters (mine was personally recommended by FTE and does Richard Davidson's Wows = good enough for him, plenty good enough for me lol) but as I say my experience has been 100% brilliant
