Thinking of getting one. Fully understand how the back set of straps fit under the panel.
I'm just wondering if they will fit under the panel of my Kent and Masters S series dressage saddle. There seems to be a funny trim along the panels where they meet the gullet.
If the clip things don't fit under, can the seat save be used with out them? i.e tuck them under the flap towards the stirrup bar or cut them off ?

I can't see why they wouldn't fit but yes it works fine without them, I know folk that have cut them off (didn't know how they worked) & others who have left them dangling/tucked in else where, it wont budge. Dont really see the point in the straps tbh.

Well yesterday I placed an order for a thicker cushion rider gel out seat saver with horse health and it arrived this morning.
It's lying on my dining table at the moment and I can't stop going in and squishing it! can't wait to have a go in it tomorrow. From what I've seen of it, it was worth every penny.

Oh I very much did! It was absolutely amazing! I couldn't feel my pressure sore on my bum at all (Ehlers Danlos syndrome + pants elastic + bad organisation at a comp venue missing my class out and leaving me in the saddlein the warm up arena for 2.5hrs = one huge open pressure sore). It certainly lived up to my expectation with shock absorbing too. As I'm disabled I can't rise my trot and forced to sit, and I'm sure because any impact between me and the saddle is being absorbed my legs weren't flapping about so much either. (Legs had a tendency to flap sideways away grim my horse) I could certainly see nice still legs in the mirror and even my trainer was complimentary of it too. He needed to pop on to sort something out Bum bliss!

Yes I do every now and again. Usually just lurk, but post if I want reviews on any kit etc.... I'm mainly a BD forumite but it's gone a little dull on there so tend to dip in and out of all three
