Grandeur Flowfinder Fellsattel, pressure-distributing lambskin bareback pad with horse-friendly V-girth system.
The Grandeur Flowfinder bareback pad, like the Grandeur Tomentum Fellsattels, features a chamber construction with multiple inserts for good spine freedom and pressure distribution. The Flowfinder has a double plastic plate instead of one plastic plate for pressure distribution, making the pressure distribution even better. However, this also makes the Flowfinder slightly stiffer than the other Grandeur Tomentum Fellsattels. Additionally, the Flowfinder also has a V-girth system, which distributes girth pressure better and provides a more stable fit for the bareback pad. The seat is made of genuine lambskin.

Exclusive girth:
Delivery of this bareback pad does not include a girth, so you can choose/use a dressage girth according to your preference. The bareback pad is therefore equipped with long dressage girth straps. A very suitable matching girth is the V-system girth, which optimizes the V-girth system in the bareback pad.
Material pressure-distributing lambskin bareback pad:
Upper side: lambskin
Inside: 2 pairs of inserts and 2 plastic plates
Underside: synthetic wool and needle felt
Maintenance and use of lambskin bareback pad:
To protect your bareback pad from dirt, it is advisable to use a pad under the bareback pad. Or preferably even a pad with inserts if your horse has an outstanding spine or if you intend to use the bareback pad intensively. The underside of the bareback pad can hardly be washed, so this is really advisable. You can brush and vacuum it to remove dust. The lambskin seat is detachable and can be washed with lambskin detergent, spin-dried up to 400 times, and slowly dried.
