*Thorowgood T9 Compact GP Saddle
Thorowgood
T9 Compact GP
Colour: Black, Brown
Changeable Gullet: N/M to XW/XXW
Gullet Bar Type: R-Bar
The super-comfy, deeper seat locates you centrally for perfect balance and gives you a little extra in-saddle security. Although the seat is true to size, its neat design combined with the slimline panels offers a more 'compact' feel compared to our T9 Original GP. Petite riders, those with narrower hips or riders who don’t like an 'open-seat feel' may feel it suits them better.
- Gorgeous soft leather on all the 'contact points': seat, skirt and knee pads
- The flap is forward cut enough to allow for jumping and cross-country, as well as schooling and hacking
- Adjustable and changeable Velcro knee block to fine tune leg support
- Made in England and flocked with 100% British wool
NB: There are two gullet bar lengths (R and S type) to suit the specific tree designs. *XXW (Silver) size is available in S-Bar only. Step 1: Use the hex key to remove the 2 screws at the front of each panel. Step 2: Slide the panel off the point of the tree. Step 3: Unscrew all four bolts in the gullet bar and remove the gullet bar. Step 4: Insert different width of gullet bar. Insert all four bolts by hand then secure. Use the indent in the tree to position the bar facing the right way. Only SimaTree gullet bars are suitable for Thorowgood saddles. You must NOT use any other bar in your Thorowgood saddle. Begin by girthing in the neutral position using the second and third billet. (NOTE: This is the same as girthing on the first and third billets on a saddle with a conventional girthing system) If you find the saddle slips forward, you can use straps 1 and 3 If the back of the saddle lifts away from the horse’s back, move the third strap onto the floating balance position and use straps 2 and 4 For increased stability you can use straps 1 and 4 NEVER girth using positions 1 & 2. This causes saddle instability and potential discomfort for your horse.Changeable Gullet
