Re: [RC] Arabian saddles - Barbara McCrary

I tested a Solstice for a couple of rides.  1) I had tried an X-wide and it
was too wide for that particular horse (not the fault of the saddle, of
course). 2) For me, personally, the stirrups were set back too far and gave
me cramps in my hip joints.  In the first place, these cramps are something
that occurs from time to time, not always caused by a saddle, either.  In
the second place, many riders prefer the "dressage" style of stirrup
placement; it just doesn't happen to suit my  body.  That being said, I have
a Sylvan GP by Arabian Saddle Co. and I absolutely love it.  It is super
comfortable and very well made.  If the Solstice suits you, then buy it.
The saddles are just great.  Find the model that fit YOU.

Has anyone ridden in the Solstice endurance saddle by the Arabian Saddle
Company from Walsall, England?  My husband is looking for a saddle for our
mare that would be good for both of them.  Are they well made,
comfortable,
etc.?

Thanks!
Becky
