Re: [RC] [RC] Sportsaddle - how long did it take for you to get usedto it? - Deanna GermanKaren, I never got used to my Sports Saddle. Had it for a year, sat in an Ortho-Flex Endurance Cutback and sold it as soon as I could get an OFEC of my own. No regrets whatsoever! Good riddance Sports Saddle! My hips never got used to it, it killed me on even a 5 mile ride. I couldn't get a leg on my horse -- how anyone can ride that way is beyond me. BUT, the saddle seems to work for some people, even many people; it sure didn't work for me. The good news is that if it turns out you don't like it, they have very good re-sale value. I just saw the woman I sold mine to and she seems happy as a clam with it.

I received my new Bob Marshall sportsaddle a couple of weeks ago. I'm still trying to get used to it - because my mare is carrying some extra weight now, and because she's a round girl to begin with, it's a very different feeling than what I'm used to (um, I used to ride a horse, now I feel like I'm riding a beer keg). I've always ridden English, and I'm also used to some kind of twist on the saddle (I'm currently using just a regular wool pad - I have a skito pad on the way - will that help at all?)..... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
