Advantages of the Riding Pad Bareback Pad:
+ Good anatomical fit for many horses and ponies.
+ V-girth system for even pressure distribution.
+ Faux suede upper side for good grip.
+ Stable position due to non-slip underside.
+ Girth not included, so you can use your preferred girth.
+ Girth straps reinforced with nylon.
+ Patches are covered with sheep's wool instead of lambskin, like the Barefoot Ride on Pad.
+ Can be combined with the Barefoot Ride on Pad sheepskin seat.
+ With handle.
Disadvantages of the anatomical Bareback Pad:
- No stirrups for additional support for the rider.
- Some riders may find the contact with the patches uncomfortable, but they are easily removable.
- The patches may make the bareback pad too long for some ponies, but they are easily detachable.
The V-system Bareback Pad is ideal for:
- From sturdy C ponies to horses.
- Horses and/or ponies with no to medium-high withers.
- Riders looking for a bit of grip.
- Approximately 2 to 3 times per week of use.
Less suitable for:
- Horses and/or ponies with a prominent spine.
- Shetland ponies and small ponies.
- Intensive use without an additional pad for back protection.
No stirrup leathers on the Bareback Pad:
To avoid point pressure along the spine, stirrups cannot be attached to the USG Riding Pad Bareback Pad. Additionally, the rider may get a false sense of security and is less encouraged to train an independent seat with stirrups.
Size information for the black Bareback Pad:
Size: full-cob

Barefoot Sheepskin Seat for Bareback Pads:
Because this bareback pad from USG has 5 D-rings in the exact same locations as the Barefoot Ride on Pads, the Barefoot sheepskin seat also fits this bareback pad.
Girth not included:
Delivery of this bareback pad does not include a girth, allowing you to choose/use a dressage girth of your preference. The bareback pad comes equipped with dressage girth straps.
Material of the non-slip Bareback Pad:
Upper side: Faux suede.
Inside: High-density foam.
Underside: Non-slip Sympanova.
Girth straps: Nylon.
Maintenance of the Bareback Pad:
Brush the faux suede with a soft brush if it becomes dirty. Clean the non-slip Sympanova underside with a damp sponge.
