In this blog "Saddles in the picture" we will tell you more about the saddles of the Erreplus brand.
This brand, with its roots in Valdagno, northern Italy, was founded by Roberto Rasia. With 25 years of experience and an unbelievable passion for horsemanship, he has worked with a whole team of experts, champions and technicians to develop a saddle that creates a perfect connection between the horse and its rider.
Innovative points
There are 4 innovative points at a tree of an Erreplus saddle. This applies to both the jumping and dressage saddles.
point 1- At the front of the tree, the branches extend slightly outwards, which gives great shoulder freedom and comfort for the modern horse type.
In this way it is suitable and adaptable for many different types.
point 2- The trees are made of a fiber reinforced plastic and have three openings in the area between the pubic bone and the ischium of the rider.
The jumping and eventing trees have openings and in the dressage trees these are depressions in order to increase the rider's comfort in these areas.
point 3- The waist of the seat is narrowed so that the rider slides less and the saddle also stays in position better.
point 4- In the area of ​​the openings / depressions in the tree, the foam layer is extra thick to maximize comfort.
SL panel
In addition, you also have the choice of a normal panel or an SL panel in the cushion. With the SL panel, the cushion on the shoulder is divided in two. This gives extra freedom of movement, which is especially suitable for broad-shouldered horses. This short panel avoids any kind of pressure, guaranteeing perfect movement of the shoulder. All this while maintaining a large contact surface on the horse.
*The SL panel is not suitable for horses with a very high wither or who are very narrow at the shoulder.
