Question:

Dressage Saddle HELP?!?

by  |  earlier

0 LIKES UnLike

Ok. You know how some dressage saddles have knee rolls that kind of pop out? They are thicker so that the rider is held in more?

You know the dressage saddles with flat knee rolls?

Can they work as effective? I have recently taken dressage as a disipline and LOVE it. I FINALLY found a brand new dressage saddle on State Line Tack...IN MY PRICE RANGE!!! :)

** Do you think that buying the saddle with flat knee rolls would be bad for my position or riding?

Would it work??

  1. If the saddle fits you, it will work fine.  Make sure you can return the saddle if it doesn't fit you  or your horse - I certainly wouldn't buy it if you can't.

    Some people prefer the heavy knee rolls.  I prefer the flatter ones, myself; they support the leg but don't restrict my leg movement so much and I feel I get better contact that way.


  2. What ever fits your horse and you will be fine !

    there are so many to choose from , Your seat should be the same in what ever you buy

    I personally like them.. when they DON'T hold me in so much

    I want one that I can move my legs back or forward without being restrictied,,

    I really do not like the ones with all the padding , and make you sit the saddle the way it was built!!

    Just try a few out , they do have that policy,, and then you even can buy those that they have used for trying them out !

    Try Dovers ,, before you buy they have a web site

    Remember fit the Horse first ,, then You  !!
