Product Details
Technology & Materials:
Wintec saddles now feature HART technology, proven to be transformative for horse and rider. If your saddle comes with a HART badge, it has the following features:
- Protective cushioning: CAIR Cushion System
- Precision custom fit: EASY-CHANGE Fit Solution
- Ergonomic flex: Elastiflex Tree
- Free movement: Performance panel technology
- Superior rider performance: Comfort seat technology
Adjustable Flexibloc System: This system enables the rider to customize the support they need for their individual riding position. These blocks are easy to move but stay put once placed.
Adjustable Ergonomic Stirrup Bar: Allows the rider to alter the position of the stirrup bar for complete control of their riding position. The stirrup channel is also recessed for closer contact.
Elastiflex Tree: Imagine the comfort of a tree with the ability to flex and move with your every stride. Your horse’s spine is protected from concussive forces, whilst lateral flexion enables your horse’s back to swing and move uninhibited and naturally. It is exceptionally lightweight, symmetrical and strong over time, protecting it from breakage or warping.
Wintec CAIR® Cushion System: Finally, a panel system that understands the mechanics of the equine back and the impact saddles have on horse and rider performance! The revolutionary CAIR® Cushion System replaces the traditional fillings in your saddle panel with air. There are two independently sealed Air Cushions within each Saddle Panel. The concept of air, as the ultimate in cushioning for the horse, is simple:
Air being a fluid medium will constantly adapt to the horse’s working muscles. This means that your weight will be distributed evenly across the entire length of the cushion, virtually eliminating pressure points. This extraordinary comfort results in freer movement, better carriage, and a happier horse. For such a simple concept, the dramatic difference the CAIR® Cushion System makes to a horse’s comfort and performance is profound.
Research & Testing - The CAIR Panel System has undergone a rigorous testing program to ensure durability. CAIR air panels have been subjected to a series of tests equivalent to in excess of 10,000 hours of riding time in the saddle.
Easy-Change Fit Solution: When your horse is your world, you need total reassurance of a perfect fit solution now and in the future. Relax with confidence in full adjustability to both the tree and panel. With the greatest scope of customization in your hands that is measurable, symmetrical, and completely reversible.
