Paulita Neff December 15, 2016

I’m not one to write online reviews, but I just had to tell you about Paulita and this wonderful saddle.

I have a 5 year old TWH that I ride almost every day. He has big shoulders, a prominent backbone and high withers. Yes, he’s a difficult horse to fit a saddle to. I tried a few different versions of western saddles, English saddles, and a dressage saddle. Nothing worked. My horse got saddle sores, pressure welts, and he was bucking (just in case I didn’t get the message).

I reached out to Paulita under the recommendation of my veterinarian.

My vet had bought a Freeform saddle from Paulita and “couldn’t say enough” about Paulita’s great customer service and the quality and design of the saddle itself. Suffice to say, I agree 100%! Paulita is very knowledgeable and is just the nicest person to deal with. We spent a lot of time discussing what would work best for my horse and I. She helped me put together a saddle that I can honestly say is the most comfortable saddle seat I have EVER sat in. I bought the aptly named “happy ass” seat and the trail saddle. I love the contact I have with the horse, it almost feels as if I’m riding bareback, but it’s a lot more comfortable. The saddle is lightweight and fits my horse like a glove. He has plenty of wither clearance and complete freedom of movement in his shoulder. We have had our Freeform saddle for about two months. We ride almost every day. I am happy to report that my horse is moving beautifully and he has only bucked once under this saddle (he was spooked). I think it’s his little way of saying thank you.

I am certainly grateful to Paulita for her expertise and her kindness. The whole experience was actually fun for me and I feel like I made a new friend. I highly recommend working with Paulita and discovering this incredible saddle for yourself.

You won’t regret it!

“I'm in love with the Ultimate Trail saddle and what it's done for my horse!

I had gone looking for an alternative to my bespoke County saddle when my horse Blanco finally started coming back into work after a long bout of lameness. That’s when I discovered the treeless saddle & after much research contacted Paulita. We talked about what I wanted and what Blanco needed.

We've never been happier. I’ve had the Ultimate Trail saddle and Freeform pad for a year now. We’ve come so far. Blanco’s back is still changing, but through it all the saddle has fit both of us perfectly.”
–Brooks & Blanco

“Just wanted to give you a little Svenna update- she has changed SO MUCH since I bought the Freeform. Her back looks incredible. Really, her whole body has muscled up properly because she can get over the back and really work.

"I love riding in it (more balanced than my $4000 custom saddle ever was), although it probably took a solid two or three months to get the panels and stirrups placed juuuust right. Now it's absolutely perfect. Svenna loves it, too. She moves out great in it.

"I ended up putting the panels pretty far back and with a very wide spinal channel. It is super balanced and stable on her very round back - I can even get on from the ground if I absolutely have to. I also like how the front part of the panel fills in under my knee; it makes the saddle fit me a bit better and more securely. It took a lot of fussing to figure out this arrangement, I tried lots of different pads and panel placements, but I'm very happy with the result. Her sweat marks have also been great with this arrangement." READ THE WHOLE STORY..”
