I spent the entire 15 minutes (that was all I could stand) trying to pull 
my leg back/and bring my hips forward, so my leg was underneath me. It 
was like sitting in a chair. Several people said to have the stirrups 
moved back an inch, but looking at where the stirrups hang, I don't see 
how an inch is enough....
Also, I rode once for 15 minutes and the hole in the latigo I had the 
girth on ripped about an inch. Cheap...very cheap...
It seems pretty cheap, and the seam down the middle right in your crotch 
is not particularly comfortable.
Also, the little flap that covers the top of the stirrups kept jabbing my 
right below my knee above my calf. Is this something that just needs to 
be softened up by use, or am I going to have to use half chaps. I have 
some pictures of people in Sports Saddles and they are all wearing half 
chaps. 
I'm afraid if I send it back and have the stirrups moved, I still won't 
like it and I can't return it then.
Any advice/comments would be appreciated. TIA!!
