RE: [RC] Sport Saddle owners - please reply - Whiteaker, SteveI recently attended a seminar where the clinician opined that treeless saddles were probably not a good choice for heavyweight riders. While she didn't define heavyweight, I'm pretty sure she was referring to 185+ lbs. Steve -----Original Message----- From: Lonnie Ruesch [mailto:lonnieruesch@xxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2003 4:18 PM To: ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Hi All, I have a friend who just underwent knee surgery. He has asked that I post this to ridecamp. He is a heavyweight rider, 200+ lb. He tried a sport saddle for a short ride and thought it might be easier on his knees than his present saddle. Does anyone have experience w/this saddle who is a HW rider? He is wondering how well the horse handles the weight with this saddle. He is worried about lack of support for the horse. Any comments would be greatly appreciated. lonnieruesch@xxxxxxxxxxx _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
