Kuda Premier Leather Flex Saddle| Kuda Treeless Premier Saddle

Kuda Western Flex - This saddle does not have a hard wooden tree. It does have bars however, made of leather and foam. They raise the rider up away from the horses spine so that a nice air channel is formed down the horses back. No spinal pressure and no bridging. The saddle bars bend and form to the horses back. This also ensures that the horse does not feel jabs in the loins or withers upon turning. You are sitting close to your horse and can feel all the movements he makes under you.  Your communication is multiplied many times. 

The pommel is made of wood covered with rawhide. It comes in three sizes to fit virtually all horses withers. The bars mold to the horses back, but the pommel must be the correct width to sit properly on either side of the withers. To find out the width of your horses withers, do a measurement. See instuctions here. The Cantle is made of a rigid foam material. It is rigid yet flexible. 

The Western Flex has a fairly flat seat, making it easier to move around while training. It is also more comfortable for men as it does not rise up drastically toward the pommel. This saddle is sized like a Western. 
The rigging is a Center Fire Rigging. The latigo starts in the back, goes down through the cinch ring, up through the front ring of the saddle, back down through the cinch ring, and then ties off in the back. This lets the cinch ring float and self adjust so the pressure is equal from front to back on the saddle. This keeps the saddle from flipping up in back while going down hill. With the use of a crupper and breast collar, the saddle does not have to be super tight either.

The Kuda Stirrups are made of steel and are covered with leather. They weigh 3 pounds. They have the twist built in. No more knee ache!!

 
A Skito Pad is recommended with this saddle as for all treeless saddles.
