WOW saddles - any advice?

[AmyRai]

I'm currently contemplating a WOW saddle for my horse - 16.3 warmblood with rediculously high withers and who changes shape a lot and is consequently very difficult to fit. I know they're something akin to marmite in that people either love or hate them, and as far as I can gather, a lot is to do with the fitter. I'm based in Yorkshire and have 3 covering my area - Keith Whitehouse (Fox Saddlers), Debbie Richardson and Kate Topping - and would like to know if anyone has had anyy experience of them, good or otherwise!! Thank-you!!

I have a wow XC flap and shallow seat for my lad. He's IDx and doesn't have huge withers, but just huge shoulders. It's the best thing I could have done, it's massively improved how he jumps.

I had a lady from Malton/Pickering fit mine, Elaine I think, but she doesn't do it any more. Have heard good things about Fox Saddlers though.

That's great - thank-you!!

Keith from Fox saddlers came out to fit a wow for us a year ago. He was absolutely superb, he was here over 2 hours, there was a problem and he rang through to wow twice for advice. He got it fitted beautifully and our horse loved it......BUT my daughter hated it so I ended up selling it again.
