One of the most common problems encountered in saddle fitting is finding a saddle that truly fits the horse, allowing comfort and optimal performance, without compromising the rider’s position. WOW saddles are unique in their modular construction; one of the many benefits is the ability to accurately fit both horse and rider, without compromise.

For the horse, any of the 20+ panel options in every size can be combined with the correct Y-bar tree curvature and one of the 21 headplate choices. A wide range of girthing options on every saddle results in saddle stability whatever the overall conformation and position of the girth groove. The modular construction then enables the rider to add their preferred seat and flaps, to create a saddle uniquely suited to them and their horse.

WOW’s modular approach means even fits with issues can often be happily resolved. Recent examples include this lovely grey showjump/eventing mare whose declining performance led to a kissing spine operation last year. Her rehab was not progressing as well as had been hoped – until she was fitted with a WOW, and earlier this month she returned to competition. Her owner commented “This was the first time we have been able to jump a 1m class in 3 years…. Her WOW saddle has made such a difference to her comfort and style.”
