I think they are fantastic and definitely worth the money!!! I've heard only good about them and my friend brought one a couple of months ago and it has made such a difference in her horse.
I've ridden in the dressage one. it was weird, probably takes some getting used to, but i didnt think 'WOW' must go buy one myself!
they look quite cool though.

I've had mine for a few years now and its made a massive difference to my horse. She has gained a massive amount of topline as she can now use her back properly and has gone up several width fittings. She also used to rush fences when jumping and buck a lot which she now very rarely does. I can adjust it so it fits her perfectly if she changes shape slightly and she has changed from being a tense anxious ride to a nice relaxed one.
Im trying one in the next 2 weeks so will tell you then. Its a Dressage extra deep seat with conventional flaps. I really carnt wait to see what its like & sit in it. I just want the best for my horse we've had so many problems with saddles im hoping that the WOW will solve all that. So fingers crossed.
I had one and HATED it. Made me feel perched and I didn't feel as though I could get my leg on properly. Sold it for £600 after only ever riding in it a handful of times.
i love mine, if you search wow on the new lounge and stable yeard u will probs find loads on them!!
theres some pics of mine in the picture gallery atm.
i used to think they were very ugly but they are starting to make the flaps smooth rather than the random stitching and when you have a rider in them they look the same as any toher sadddle i think !!
I have had so many probs with my horse bucking me off with standard saddles. Bought Ultima and she started rearing!! Tried and bought Wow saddle. Within 6 weeks she was 2nd in dressage ( I had struggled for 2 years to get her working properly) and has not bucked since I got it in August!! Its not as comfy as the ultima but at least Im not on the floor!!!
The thing about the wow is it is so adaptable and enabled the saddler and me to identify the issues throiugh a process of elimination.
But a word of advice- if you have a problem horse contact a wow dealer who is interested in difficult ones. I use Louise Howson from Shere Saddlery Guildford who is really good and very thorough. She really knows the product too. Hoping to buy jumping one soon. Worked miracles for my horse, but theyre not for everyone!!
