Are you going around in circles and coming up against the same saddle fit issues time and time again, leading to training problems, sore backs and expensive, often unexpected, saddle bills? Wave goodbye to the limitations of traditional saddle designs with a fully flexible SMART Saddle!
Not only does a SMART saddle flex to accommodate your horse’s movement in the moment, it also flexes to accommodate changes in shape across the seasons and over the years, breaking the cycle of needing a new saddle each time your horse changes shape!
With a SMART saddle you can:
✔ Stop worrying that your saddle is restricting your horse
✔ Relax ahead of a refit visit: there’s no need to brace yourself for the expense of yet another new saddle
✔ Monitor the fit yourself with simple checks that anyone can do
✔ Make interim adjustments with accessible, affordable SMART Easy-fit Shims
Although your new SMART saddle will still need refitting, you can do this by simply changing how you apply the saddle to your horse’s back through shims and dorsal pads, rather than changing the saddle itself; no sending the saddle away for expensive adjustments, no reflocking by eye, no new saddles.
"After years of trying to fit saddles correctly for my horses, I bought a Smart Elite VSD Saddle from Smart Saddles retailer and fitter Vanessa Karsten. Having used it on a daily basis for the last few months, I now feel this saddle is the best one I've ever had. It, together with some wonderful assistance and support from Vanessa, has been a complete game changer for me. All three horses have happily taken to the saddle, as have I. It's amazing! Using different shim combinations at last I have a saddle that fits my three horses perfectly. And, because I can feel the horses better when I'm on them, my own balance has improved. I'd recommend this saddle to anyone."

As riders, we should encourage positive changes to our horses’ posture and musculature; don’t let saddle limitations prevent your horse from being the strongest, healthiest version of themselves.

The SMART Saddle range will be available to view at Equifest, Taupo 18 – 20 October 2024.
