FlexPanel Saddles

[No_Angel]

Anyone use a flex panel saddle?
How do you find they fit?
Do they have to be refitted all the time by a saddle fitter, or are they quite easy to tweak your self?

I have seen one for sale and it says they are able to fit all horses because of the panels, do they have a standard size tree, or different sizes?

I have an ElDorado Triple E Flex panel saddle.
Sold my American Flex spanish dressage saddle because my backside got a little too big for it, other wise I would over never sold that one.

Have to admit I do like the nicer made flex panel saddles.

For fit...will fit a wider range of horses compared to treed saddles. The panels will flex with the horse's movement but at the same time the saddles are very stable.

Just need to do the normal maintance like you do on leather saddles.
The newer model panels will last well over 6 years in heavy use..longer if the horse is ridden less.
I use white lithom (spell?) grease on the joints every once in awhile to make sure they will slide properly on the panels.
Is not a bother at all to do.:D

Have used these saddles on many, many horses over the years. Even on horse's that have never had them on before,,,so far..horse's seem to really like these saddles.
