saddle pads

[Adrienne <weabe@ix.netcom.com>]

I'm on a mission right now-to find the best saddle pad out there. By best I 
mean the one that equalizes the pressure on the horse's back, that makes up 
for a less than perfect saddle fit (please don't tell me to get my saddle 
to fit perfectly! Perfectly fitting saddle is an oxymoron!). I have been 
reading about Saddleright, EVAC pad, Skito pads and of course they all 
sound like just the ticket. Since a good pad is not an inexpensive item, a 
little advice/anecdotal pros and cons would be greatly appreciated. I ride 
English if that makes any difference.

P.S. I've also been hearing some good things about ortho flex saddles. I 
will eventually be in the market for a saddle as the one I'm using now is a 
loaner. Any feedback on their U.K. Cross Country Jumper or their Cadence 
RMM?
