摘要 |
The present invention relates to a novel saddle for horses, consisting of a head iron (1) and a saddletree having a seat (2), saddle flaps (3) provided on both sides of said seat, sweat flaps (4) lying beneath said saddle flaps (3), a saddle pad (5), which lies on the back of the mount behind the shoulders thereof when the saddle is being used, and stirrup straps (6) lying on or under the saddle flaps (3) and being fastened to stirrup bars. The saddle is characterized in that, below the point of the head iron (1), the sweat flaps (4) have a rearward facing curved recess/cutback (40) and are padded over the entire area thereof. The recess of the sweat flaps according to the invention ensures that the saddle has absolute shoulder and muscle freedom, unobstructed lateral movement in stretch extension, and optimal flexibility at the rear owing to a special pad position described in detail hereafter, extending as far as at most the 18th thoracic vertebra. |
