This message is from: laura fisher <laura_fishe...@hotmail.com> ...I know how wonderful this saddle is. I tried many dressage saddles and after a half hour or so riding dressage they would become torture devices. (To anyone out there who knows me I lived in NJ for a few years and was lucky enough to keep my horse at a dressage barn. ) I had no clue what saddle to buy so I begged other riders if I could try theirs'. Some people were gracious and other were emphatically not....Then someone in the barn came in on an Albion.....Ahhhh...I will never forget it.! ...I asked if I could possibly sit in it and the answer was "yes" ..Oh my GOSH! This saddle is made for women!
The problem is that I have lost over 50+ pounds and it doesn't feel right. Elise hated it and I couldn't stay balanced...I could try one more time? I intend to jump and do ring work, but can anyone tell me this is the problem? I am not going to gain the weight back so I can ride the saddle... :( I guess someone will scoff this baby up. ;( > Date: Sun, 27 Sep 2009 18:29:39 +0000 > From: dgant...@comcast.net > To: fjordhorse@angus.mystery.com > Subject: Re: selling saddles > > This message is from: dgant...@comcast.net > > --Go on the Albion website, they usually have a link to used saddles - > dimensions - etc. I LOVE my Albion on my 'wider' traditional fjord, Olav, it > has a nice deep seat, super comfortable...I bought it used, on ebay, for > $1000.00 free shipping - about 6 yrs ago, they can tell you where to look on > the flaps for the info re: size etc. I will recommend this saddle to > anyone....my son has competed in it - eventing- and our eventing horse "Bjorn" > loves wearing it...Albions are worth their weight in gold....good luck! > This message is from: laura fisher <laura_fishe...@hotmail.com> > > Hello out there- > > > > I own an Albion Original Comfort dressage saddle that I want to sell.
