Thanks, Nicco!

Have you tried it on your TWHs yet?

The secondhand SS market sure seems to be strong/instant. I
had boought an interim Wintec endurance, but hated sloshing
around in the seat; fortunately a fellow boarder took it off
my hands.

Sounds like you've used the Skito pad, without the "inter"
insert?

Did you consider trying your OF neo girth with the SS? I'd
like to do that, if possible, but guess I'd need a Western
model. Darn. I won a 44" English one in Broken Horn's
drawings last sale. Kind of funny, the year before I won
Kellon's Emergency vet book, an OF hat and OF tshirt. How
many of their customers do you suppose are OF fans?
Serendipity.

Are the "cheapo straps" the rigging? They could burn the
holes flatter so that they wouldn't be prickly IMO, too. A
soldering iron would take care of that, wouldn't it?

Maybe that would be a good aftermarket for somebody (Teddy?)
to market Biothane rigging for SSs.

How far did you have the stirrups moved back? Do you ride
much bareback? I do, so I'm hoping it will be comfortable.
