[RC] "trippy" WAS: Gaited Horses - Paul Latiolais

Bruce,

...Walkers, Foxtrotters, a Walkaloosa and a Kentucky Mountain Saddle Horse. Several of them were "trippy"...

When I had that problem, it turned out to be saddle fit at the whithers/shoulder area. A wider "gaited" saddle fixed the problem completely

I have learned that standard saddles are not "fit" (excuse the pun) for gaited horses. They need that extra room in the shoulder area.

Is it that they "angle" the bars? Does anyone know?
