Jumping saddle
A jumping saddle has to perform two functions: it has to give the rider the necessary freedom of movement to jump yet also give him a secure seat when the body is elevated out of the saddle. The jumping saddle’s special design guarantees both these things because it has short, forward-cut flaps and much larger knee pads than the dressage saddle. The jumping saddle is also wider and better padded than the dressage saddle. The pommel and cantle are flatter in design that those of a dressage saddle to provide the rider with the necessary freedom of movement over the jump.
Horses change shape during their lives, and the jumping saddle’s padding flattens out, so always have your jumping saddle checked regularly by an expert saddler and have it adjusted or padded if necessary. Don’t make any compromises when you buy a jumping saddle. Only a saddle that fits you and your horse properly will give you enjoyment and prevent your horse from suffering health problems. Adjustable jumping saddles are very practical for young horses that are still developing muscles and tend to change shape as a result.
