Like all VSD
saddles, the VSD Summit is designed primarily for flat work,
including dressage, trail, endurance, and general pleasure riding.
It is extremely comfortable for distance riding or long hours in
the saddle.
The VSD Summit
(formerly the VSD Mark II) has a unique leg channel comprised of a
softly cushioned knee pad with a matching calf pad sewn into the
rear of the flap. These soft pads cover Velcro-on knee and calf
blocks, which attach under the flap. The look is distinctive; the
saddle is incredibly comfortable and secure.
The
ReactorPanel Saddle is a revolutionary design! The saddle sits on
two panels- one on each side of the spine - which are designed to
move with the horse. The panels attach to the saddle tree with four
shock absorbing discs that have Velcro on each side AND the saddle
rests on the panels in the center (roughly under the twist) - it is
not "suspended" in the air. The discs can be repositioned easily,
making it possible to get a custom fit for your horse. The front to
back balance is achieved by using different sized discs, and it's
often possible to adjust the saddle to compensate for lack of
symmetry or muscle atrophy in your horse.
The
ReactorPanel was created from the ground up to provide the greatest
possible comfort for the horse. In a ReactorPanel saddle,
performance is enhanced because the horse is able to more fully use
its range of motion medially and laterally. Because the
ReactorPanel saddle allows for greater freedom of shoulder movement
(allowing for expansion as well as rotation), the stride typically
lengthens and all gaits tend to improve. The distribution of the
rider's weight via the large surface area of the ReactorPanels is
enormously beneficial in all disciplines.
May have some wear from demoing.
