i went to the website with the skyrider and saw a different saddle called 
the Cordura Darwin. I'm wondering if anyone knows anything about these. He 
says they are close out and I was close to ordering one to try it, but I'm 
worried it won't fit any better than all the others (tried an Abetta with 
mixed results today) and I'll be out the shipping and time. He did say that 
you had two weeks to really try the saddle and get a refund if it dind't 
work. He made it sound like you could actually ride it. The ad says that 
the stirrups are in western position rather than dressage. I'm wondering if 
that means they will be very far in front. I did like the Abetta for 
balance, but it seems to be rubbing back and forth with her movement, like 
the Wintec did before the restuffing.

The restuffed saddle was a lot better, but not perfect. It now rides up 
higher in front and caused me some pain I didn't have before. Her left side 
was more evenly sweated, though there was a little variation. On the right 
side though, one totally dry spot remained after riding 9 miles. I suspect 
that I'm leaning off the left side of the saddle some, but that her 
asymmetrical shape isn't helping.
