The Barracuda dressage saddle was designed for those who really want to feel close to their horse but have the extra comfort for the horse and rider.
This is normally a compromise due to close contact saddles not being very comfortable for the horse. But this specially designed panel allowing excellent comfort and a superb fit. A deep central seat with balloon knee pads or moulded knee pads allowing for the perfect position for the heart of dressage.
Generally most sizes below 17" are for Junior riders or very small adults. 17" and 17.5" saddles are the most popular sizes, with 18" and above being more suited to the larger rider.
