    I have a collegiate monoflap and I love it!! Fits my shark-finned thoroughbred like a dream. She's a veryyyy hot mare and the monoflap saddle has kept me secure through all of her fiery moments. 100% recommend, I can't see myself ever going back to a normal saddle!

    I have a monoflap (jumping) saddle for one horse, we went for it because he had a tendency to leap about when excited and it meant I could keep my legs round him. The other horse has a 'standard' jumping saddle, but I really notice the girth buckles under my leg now!

    I have SUCH short legs I feel like I should look into it. Then again I'm happy jumping in my dressage saddle.

    Be interested to see what you think on this subject a few years on where we see more monoflap than dual now. Is this just fashion or snob value? 😅

    I absolutely love both my monoflaps. I find my lower leg is much more stable jumping when it sits in to the horse a bit more 🙂
    I'm very much an "I want as little saddle as possible" person. I hate blocks too. Glutton for punishment maybe?

    Are mono flap saddles any good for a flat backed Fell pony 14hh 🐴

    • @ADayInTheLifeOfASaddleFitter
      @ADayInTheLifeOfASaddleFitter  Před rokem

      It depends on what you want to do with them. Monoflaps can be good on the chunky types because they have less bulk to them so you're not doing the splits quite as much :D

    Exactly where do the girth buckles end up?. Seems like they have to be central under the horses belly? not easy to do up or adjust, or Have I got hold of the wrong idea ?

    • @NoThankUBeQuiet
      @NoThankUBeQuiet Před 2 lety

      Same place as on a dressage saddle. Not that hard to adjust

    How do you care for your stirrup leathers then? Don't they dry out

    Is there something on your front teeth? Not trying to be rude just noticed

    • @ADayInTheLifeOfASaddleFitter
      @ADayInTheLifeOfASaddleFitter  Před 3 lety

      I've got something called a 'smiler' piercing, which sits on my front teeth sometimes. When I forget to tuck it away... :D
