Product shout out. Far through the years was difficult to find that perfect saddle for. He has an unusually long wither which would rub raw. The Freeform saddle with the correct pad completely stopped this. Truly the only set up that works perfectly for him. He moves free and I love the contact you feel […]
I can say I’ve got over 6,500 miles on my horse in FF saddles. I’ve tried other saddles and always gone back to my FFs. I can use them on various horses and they are comfortable for me on multi-day 50-milers.

We’ve known the horse below for several years. The original owner, while she got assistance from a pro-fitter, was having a great deal of trouble finding a saddle that this horse could move comfortably in. We got the horse, a 5-year old Arabian, in the early fall and it was clear he had been through […]
My horse Bethany GreyC ran the AHA distance nationals in Indiana this past weekend. We finished 3rd out of 20 entries in the 100-mile distance and won BC for both AERC and AHA. I believe your saddle directly contributed to the BC award.
Several years ago the wonderful woman who started my adventure of trimming my own horses, Suzanne, said to me many, many times “Paulita, you need to set up the paradise paddock system for your horses.” She went into detail of how it helps with laminitis, keeps the weight down and promotes overall wonderful horse health. […]
April has lots of great tips here! Why saddles don’t fit I invite you to go out to your horse and tie them on a flat surface and stand on a stool or bucket 5-10 foot behind them and notice how one side rump is higher. Now notice how one side of the back where […]
Legend and I did out first ever 50 endurance ride on September 30 at the Metropark Express ride in Michigan. We rode in our Freeform saddle that we bought earlier this year and it has been a wonderful saddle in training and competition. Legend finished strong and sound with absolutely no back pain! It was […]
By Bobbie Jo Lieberman Soon after I finished my first 100-mile endurance ride in a borrowed Stubben Columbo made of buffalo hide, the first of a new generation of treeless saddles was creating a buzz in the horse world. In the early 1980s, treeless was a new and captivating idea. After our fifth-place finish on […]
This new saddle pad is built for both treeless and treed saddles. It has a wonderful high wither relief, Sympanova backing, and 100% polyester air net fabric on the top. The materials permit improved breathability. It is amazing how well air flows through, helping to keep your horse’s back cool and provide comfort even during […]
In my past life I was an endurance rider, and hydration was a huge part of keeping our horses healthy. I’d like to pass on a few tidbits that I learned along the way. Clean fresh water is very important in the summertime. A horse can drink 10+ gallons in a day. I personally try […]
I have been riding in a Freeform since 2006. I got a little half Arab mare named Mo (Domino’s Wildflower) who was to become the best horse I’ve ever owned, but the beginning was very rocky in so many ways. She was 4 or 5 years old, completely wild, and very emotional about everything when […]
I wish I would have discovered my Freeform a long time ago. Bareback was my favorite way to ride; now I get the close contact without the blisters on my bottom. Paulita was amazing to work with. I am a picky shopper, she is patient and helps you find just what is right for you […]
You know that you’re a real cowgirl when someone sends you a pic that shows off your bowed legs. I’ve earned them with most of my life spent riding horses. My horse passion morphed along the way, when I opened my saddle shop “Saddle Up” and we began selling Freeform Saddles. I enjoy creating beautiful […]
I thought I’d share a few pics of our Freeform Saddles that were take during our mushrooming adventures. It’s that time of the season and I was reminded the other day about how ecstatic we are when we find our prized “Morels”. It made me think about how we have helped so many folks finally […]
