1. Anne Bondi BHSII

"I have carried a significant amount of study and research into the issues of saddle fitting and now believe that it is the single biggest issue of equine welfare that I will see in my lifetime."

2. Shena Kozuba - Kozubuska

 

"The Solution Saddle was an immediate success, although initially I still thought of it as a remedial measure. However, over time, it became clear that the technology behind this saddle must be the way forward for all those who value horse welfare."

3. Tim Downes FBHS

"As a rider, a trainer of horses and a teacher of riders, The Solution has made my daily life easier, saved me hours of time trying to find saddles that "fit" and enabled me to develop the training of many individual horses and riders way beyond their expectations."

4. Olivia McCann

"I couldn't believe the transformation...All the twitching, spooking and shying, had totally disappeared. He took a confident forward rein contact and the elevation in his paces was amazing. The horse I always believed was in there finally came to the surface.

This is the most amazing break through in Equestrian epuipment. I have since gone on to share my experiences with the people I teach and several other horses I ride - the improvement have all been breathtaking."

5. Jane Barnes

"When I tried him in the treeless Freestyle Saddle the difference was instantaneous and amazing. He now works correctly through from behind into a steady soft contact. He is straighter, his half passes and shoulder-ins even on both reins and mush more expressive and best of all he does not run to the back of the box when I produce his saddle or tighten his girth."

6. Michelle Chalmers, GB International

"Since using The Solution my pony has improved so much she was this year's reserve for the European Pony Team, and my 16.3hh mare has been invited to the trials for this year's World Class Start and Potential Programme."

7. Alice Bell

"I had to buy TWO saddles in the end, but it is worth it to see not being only Peter, but every other horse that Alice and I ride enjoying their work, without constriction and discomfort.
I am now busy trying to persaude the Scottish Highlands to become a 'tree free' zone."

8. Sam Watson, Irish International

Sam Watson was a member of the Irish Team for the European Young Eventing Championships 2006. They came fourth having performed a 'personal best' in each phase.

"Sam was quite convinced that this finish at the Young Rider Eventing Championships at Pardubice was possible because of his Solution saddle."

10. Jane Bartle-Wilson BHSI, GB International Grand Prix

Jane has found The Solution Saddle invaluable, particularly in developing straightness:

"...The resulting correct muscular development takes place quickly and this in turn allows the saddle and therefore the rider to remain more centred."

14. Jane Boyd

"When I got my mare home from being backed, I was disappointed to find that, despite being beautifully schooled, the lovely floating paces that had won her so many accolades in the show ring as a youngster, had disappeared and become 'ordinary'.

I knew that it could only be the saddle, so I ordered my first Solution Saddle and the difference was immediate. Within 10 minutes my mare had her floating trot back...and my bad back had disappeared!

I have since had be saddle on eevry type of horse on my yard from family cobs to show hunter champions, and have yet to see a horse fail to improve its way of going in a very short time.

I believe The Solution Saddle to be the best I have ever found for enhancing the comfort and communication of both horse and rider. I will never ride my horses in any other saddle again."

15. Susie Crouch

"I have had my dressage horse, known at home as Bert for nearly 11 years, he is now 14 years. He is currently competing at Advanced Medium level and has competed at 3 National Championships.

Throughout his career I had problems with his back, he used to collapse behind the saddle and appear to trap a nerve which sent his muscles into spasm.
We tried everything and eventually x-rayed his spinous processes, expecting to find kissing spines, but the x-ray showed nothing.

I tried every saddle made- or it felt like it! - But nothing made a difference until I tried The Solution Saddle. In the two years I have owned it, I have had no problems at all with his back and he is much happier, more forward thinking horse, the muscle on his back had recovered and the osteopath gives him a gold star every time she sees him!"
