Do you enjoy several different disciplines? Do you like to ride a dressage test one day followed by a course of show jumps the next? Or is a mixture of showing and eventing the thing for you?
Riders who are involved in multiple activities with their horse often have to finance a combination of appropriate saddles.
But have you ever considered one saddle that could be used whatever you decide to do?
Not only does this reduce the hassle and expense of accommodating numerous saddles, in some cases a purposely designed all round saddle may enhance the performance of both horse and rider.
A saddle from the Black Country multipurpose range may be the solution you’ve been looking for.
Black Country Saddles offer three general purpose saddles, ideal for use across disciplines. They are the GPX, the GPD and the GP Event. They all share a medium-deep seat which makes them appealing to a wide range of riders.
The GP Event is the most popular general purpose saddle from Black Country Saddles and effectively accommodates pleasure riding, jumping or flatwork. Standard thigh blocks help to keep the leg in the correct position.
The GPX is the original all-purpose saddle from the Black Country collection, this saddle lends itself well to a variety of disciplines. It’s knee position is slightly more forward-cut than the GP Event, making it comfortable for those with a longer upper leg.
The GPD saddle has a straighter cut flap which also makes it suitable for showing, dressage and pleasure rides.
All three saddles are available in a variety of trees. They are all also available in black, brown, Havana or oxblood and come in sizes 16 to 19 inches.
