For the Rider

Rider and horse are a team connected by the
saddle. Both horse and rider need as much
unrestricted movement as possible. Therefore,
the saddle must fit them both. Neither horse
nor rider should be forced into unnatural and
uncomfortable positions.
By following the steps in this guide, you will be
able to efficiently and logically select saddles
that are compatable with your bone structure.
Then with some insight into saddle fitting to
your horse, (see our Fitting Guide: Saddle to
Horse) your team will be happily connected
and able to work together.
