No matter what kind of saddle you’re using, you can dramatically
improve the riding experience for you and your horse with the HSR
(Horse Saddle Rider Interface) Saddle Pad, sold as
Theraflex® or Ther-E-Quest™ pads.
There
have been a variety of saddle pads on the market, but none completely
solve the problems inherent with saddles. Padding may reduce spot
pressure, but does it eliminate the pressure on your horse’s spine?
Does it give your horse more flexibility? Does it provide a system to
work with your horse’s natural cooling system to avoid dehydration?
After
years of research and development, Industrial
Designer Alan Brownlie has created the state-of-the-art HSR (Horse
Saddle Rider Interface) Saddle Pad that eliminates all of these problems
associated with saddles. By adapting ThermaRest® technology, Alan
designed a totally new type of saddle pad called Theraflex®
or Ther-E-Quest™. As a paradigm shift, this incredibly simple pad
provides all the following benefits:
 |
Evenly
distributes your and your saddle weight over your horse’s back
without putting any strain on their spine or supraspinous ligament. |
|
Prevents
your saddle from moving while you ride with it’s non-slip surface
with a massaging, instead of rubbing, action. |
|
Prevents
dehydration with its special breathable fabric – it constantly
allows the sweat to cool the horse as it was meant to instead of
just mopping and collecting it, leaving your horse’s body no
choice but to continuously create more sweat in an attempt to cool
down. |
|
Improves
your riding contact with your horse because you are closer and the
horse can respond to the slightest pressure cues you apply. |
|
Allows
your horse to move more freely through all
gaits and turns by flexing with your horse instead of simply
applying a static amount of pressure typical of rigidly connected
pads. |
|
Conforms
and adjusts with the natural shape changes of your horse. Applies
the correct amount of pressure to each side and easily adjusts for
weight fluctuations in your horse. |
|
Works
to set the right adjustment every time you ride. |
|
Requires
no special training. Very easy to use |
|
Comes
in a variety of standard sizes to work with any horse and saddle.
Custom fitting is also available. See photos here. |
