Especially when used on long distances it becomes noticeable whether a saddle creates harm to the horse.
Therefore we like to orient us to the endurance sport, where numerous horses are disqualified because of backaches due to misfitting saddles (We like to say “Thanks!” to the endurancesport, which is one of just a few horse sports worldwide in which the wellbeing of the horse is checked by veterinarians – something that one can unsuccessfully search among Western as well as Classic Events, where the mistreat of horses can often be seen in the practice area.)
The Barefoot Saddlesystem is very
welcome among long distance riders. The user of a Barefoot saddle is
rarely disqualified and their horses win regularly.
| Put through the paces: in the year 2009 twentysix riders used Barefoot Saddles for a ride through Mongolia; more than 700 horses were being ridden on a trip of 1000 km. And we are proud to say: EVERY horse went its sections (the horses were changed after 20 – 40 km) without saddle sores, covering dusty deserts as well as flooding rain – all being checked and commented by experienced veterinarians. All riders claimed that they enjoyed the comfort, versatility and durability of the Barefoot Saddles – and believe it to be the only saddle to be used for such an event! |
