RE: [RC] Sport Saddle owners - please reply - Whiteaker, Steve

I 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.

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.
