Raves/ Saddle Fitting

Uncomfortable Horse from Jaime in North Carolina

Paulita Neff December 21, 2018

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 a lot with saddle fit. He is a very sweet horse, but would act up around the mounting block.

Paulita personally helped us fit him, and he has been very comfortable under-saddle since! You can clearly see that he has been able to develop muscle in his back with a correct saddle, where he couldn’t before.  We made other changes to his care, but feel the change in the saddle was arguably the most important.

This horse is now cheerful under-saddle, and is proving himself quite an athlete! He did an endurance ride in late November, and was judged to be in the 2nd best veterinary condition at the end of the ride, on an examination which included back condition.

Many thanks to you Paulita! You made a big difference to this awesome horse!

“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..”
