Description of standard bareback pad:
These bareback pads are made of synthetic suede, which provides a reasonably grippy surface so you are less likely to slide off your horse. The underside is made of anti-slip material, ensuring the pad adheres firmly to your horse and will not easily shift. The synthetic material is easy to clean.
Advantages:
+ thin High Density foam padding for close contact
+ thicker foam padding around the withers
+ sympanova anti-slip underside ensures stable placement on the horse's back
+ sympanova is perforated neoprene, allowing the bareback pad to breathe
+ sympanova does not absorb sweat, keeping the bareback pad clean for longer
+ synthetic suede upper provides anti-slip for the rider on the bareback pad
+ lightly anatomically shaped for a better fit on the horse's back
+ with anti-slip girth
+ generously adjustable
+ good price-quality ratio
Disadvantages:
- girth strap over the back, which can cause pressure if tightened too tightly, however, due to the good anti-slip properties of this bareback pad, it is not necessary to tighten excessively
- thin foam padding is not suitable for intensive use
