Kent & Masters S-Series Universal GPD
DISCONTINUED
This GPD saddle will suit you if you prefer to concentrate on flatwork, dressage and hacking instead of jumping. It has a generous seat for riders who like the feel of ‘more room’ in the seat, or are slightly wider in the hips.
- Straighter cut and longer flaps than the Universal GP accommodate the longer leg position required for flatwork.
- A generous panel with a good bearing surface, and wide channel for spine clearance.
- While this saddle has a standard-wither gullet depth, it offers a very universal fit for a variety of conformations.
- A wider, flatter seat, ideal for the fuller figure.
- Velcro knee block under the flap can be positioned to suit your leg length and position.
- Ghosted stitching on the knee pad helps it contour neatly around the block for added comfort.
- Four girthing arrangements allow saddle stability to be optimised instantly.
Girthing Information
All Kent & Masters GP Saddles are fitted with three girth straps (billets), the third one being moveable.
This flexible girthing arrangement allows saddle stability to be optimised instantly.
Begin by girthing in the neutral position using the second and third billets. (NOTE: This is the same as girthing on the first and third billets on a saddle with a conventional girthing system)
If you find the saddle slips forward, you can use the point (front) strap and the third position
If the back of the saddle lifts away from the horse’s back, move the third strap onto the floating balance position and use the second and fourth position.
If the saddle tends to move forward and lift at the back, use the first and fourth positions
DO NOT girth using the first and second straps
Moveable Knee Block
This saddle features a Velcro knee block that can be adjusted to suit the leg support your need. If you prefer to ride with shorter stirrups, or have short legs, position the knee block higher up.
