I have a Sylvan GP that I just LOVE.  I don't ride the horse I bought it for 
originally, so it is now a put-aside for the time being.  I don't think it 
fits the horse I am currently riding.
I tried the Solstice, and for me, the stirrups hung too much in the 
"dressage position", too straight under me, and it caused kinks in my hip 
joints.  I have no experience with the Rubicon...I think it may be a new 
model, as I have never heard of it.  The saddles are beautifully made and I 
would highly recommend them; just find the one that fits your horse -- and 
you, of course.
