When should I use additional padding in the saddle pad?
On a large majority of horses the
Barefoot saddle can be used with a pad without
additional pads inside. The saddle can always adjust itself ideally to
the horse's stage of training etc. This Physio Saddle Pad gives you the option of using one or two sets of inserts, and customizing it to your horse's conformation.
It is important that the saddle lays level on the horse when viewed from
the side, meaning that front and rear gullet should be at the same
height. Also when standing right behind the horse though the saddle
should be in balance.
Therefore,
it can sometimes be necessary to insert an additional piece of foam in parts of the pad: i.e. in case the horse is higher at the
croup, you simply use a second layer of padding, whereas a horse with
broad shoulders needs a lift-up in the rear.
