I just discovered this newsgroup and love it! I've been trying to sift through the incredible amount of info archived.
I'm thinking about buying another saddle and would like critiques from those who have the Wintec Sport Endurance, Wintec Pro Endurance, and SportSaddle Endurance. My current saddle I made myself on a Steele tree trying to follow the Ortho-Flex concept. Not as pretty as theirs but a lot cheaper and pretty comfy.
I have sat in the Wintecs in stores, but that's not actually riding in them. If anyone near northern Idaho, western Montana or eastern Washington has a Sport or Wintec they'd be willing to let me come try, please contact me!
Recently spent almost a week riding Three Sisters Wilderness (OR) with a good friend, and she had a very comfortable old Passier jumping saddle that I used, which is why I'm thinking of getting an english-style. She used to have a Wintec Sport which she regrets selling. I am only a casual rider (work too much) but she does some serious trail miles on two geldings, 7/8 Arab sons of her beloved 18-year-old Arab-1/4Morgan mare who she has loaned to me indefinitely. I'd forgotten how much I enjoyed riding and now want to jump in whole hawg again! My friend does not currently compete but used to do a lot of NATRC and has completed the Tevis several times as well as other AERC rides.
Please just reply to me by direct email if the subject has been hashed over too much, though I actually haven't seen much on Wintecs here.
