Gel-Ride Seat Saver
Protects the rider on those long rides! Great for those
with back problems, the Gel-Ride Seat Saver cushions the ride without
creating bounce.
The Seat Saver is a layer of .8 cm
gel and a layer 1/2" foam, covered with a black polar fleece
cover. The seat is about 13" across and 12" long. It has a
basic teardrop shape, like a big bicycle seat.
In the Western Seat Saver, the back
part hooks over the cantle of the saddle with elastic. Place the pad on the
seat, then run the front elastic down through the hole by the horn and up
around the horn to secure it. It will fit any size of Western saddle, any
tree.
The English Seat Saver goes
over the seat, then from the cantle under the saddle, along the gullet, and
fastens in the front with Velcro and elastic. It will fit any English
saddle.
When ordering, please specify either English or Western.

of gel are sandwiched between the covers and run the length of the pad,
