Hi Angie, Thanks to some recommendations in the archives of this and another fjord list, I bought an American-Flex saddle, and I LOVE IT. I wanted the flexibility of a treeless, but I'm a heavier rider and prefer a narrow twist. The saddle I bought has a tree for the seat, but it's attached to a panel system with ball joints for the horse. I've used it on everything from my little morgan (who is built like a bowling ball: black and round in all directions) to an arabian, to a warmblood-like large andalusian, and even a percheron. And... oh yes, a fjord! ;-) It fit everyone beautifully, with good contact, free shoulder movement, and a nice dry channel over the top of the spine despite my 205 pound physique. -Julia Wellington, CO > > On Tue, Sep 21, 2010 at 6:46 PM, Gary & Angie Proper <agap...@mhcable.com>wrote: > > > This message is from: "Gary & Angie Proper" <agap...@mhcable.com> > > > > > > I am interested in hearing updates on those using treeless saddles. > > Angie Important FjordHorse List Links: Subscription Management: http://tinyurl.com/5msa7e FH-L Archives: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw Classified Ads: http://tinyurl.com/5b5g2f
