Interesting, Lisa has an opinion on that (and she doesn't subscribe to 
RC, web view only)...

"Bob makes an interesting point – one I visited some time ago when 
thinking about choices in padding.?

If you can get past the “cutting up of a Supracor”, then you may end up 
with a new fitting idea!

Things to add prior to taking the plunge:
-??????Having a separate pad under the saddle can reduce friction.? If 
friction is 	an issue for the horse in question, then putting the 
Supracor in the original 	panel cover will negate friction reduction.

-??????Some love the Supracor because it keeps everything else clean

Bottom line - be certain that you’re maintaining the properties of the 
Supracor that you and your horse need by inserting the material, rather 
than having it as a separate entity.

Best of luck and let us know how the experiments come out!"
