RE: [RC] Wintec white spots - eznetThe supracor pad is an ideal mate to the wintec saddles. The supracor honeycomb acts as an air pump as the horse moves. We have used this combination for thousands of miles ourselves, endurance, training and foxhunting. I never saddle up without a supracor and I have sold many wintec saddles with supracor pads. We carefully fit the saddle to the horse ( you can stuff cair saddles) and my customers have not had the problems recently mentioned. Libby Llop Wintec dealer and fitter in WNY. P.S. The wintec stirrup bars are on top of the tree and a more likely explanation for white spots is gullet plates that are too narrow. -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of betndez Sent: Thursday, November 06, 2003 11:15 PM To: RideCamp Subject: [RC] Wintec white spots I've also noticed a slight bridging on my new Wintec Pro dressage with Cair panels. I like the saddle but am exploring ways to shim that section that doesn't make solid contact. I haven't been able to elicit any back pain with firm palpation but I know it isn't a perfect fit. Another negative with the Wintec is the heat build up as someone else mentioned. I use a Toklait Woolback which works better than a synthetic fleece but still need more help in cooling the back. Has anyone found anything cooler than the Dixie Midnight No Sweat Vent pad? Unfortunately the horse I'm using the Wintec on doesn't seem to like the DM pad. That's surprising since I've successfully used that pad on other horses, one in particular who has very thin sensitive skin and he was happy in it doing 50s and 75s. Has anyone tried combining the Supracor with Wintecs? Betty Edgar Skyla gulpyfish@xxxxxxx I noticed that the section where the front and back Cair panels join, it appears that the saddle bridges. That leaves more pressure in the stirrup hanger area. I am working on filling in that small open area to see if that will distribute pressure better. Wonder if others are seeing a nonweight baring area in the same section? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
