"UNISEX" TREE
WIDER SEAT AT BACK
INTEGRATED OR NON-INTEGRATED ("FP" VERSION) PANELS
This saddle is made on a “unisex” tree, the first tree for Jumping that is very comfortable for both female and made riders. The seat is extremely comfortable: the base of the rear of the seat is wider than traditional saddles. The presence of two larger membranes softens impact and increases comfort. The panels are wider along their entire length to distribute the weight of the rider more evenly, they are thin and integrated with the under flaps to improve close contact. This version is recommended for horses with normal or small withers. Alternatively, the X-Perience is available with non-integrated panels (“FP” version) for greater versatility and adaptability to horses with more prominent withers.
WIDER SEAT AT BACK
CPS
WIDER AND SHORTER PANELS
The Michel Robert saddle is well known for its effectiveness to put the rider in the optimum position and balance, without constraint. The new Michel Robert CPS is built on an innovative tree featuring the CPS technology, that takes into account both male and female anatomy. The narrow twist, which is typical of the Michel Robert model, remains unchanged and guarantees a very close contact feeling for the rider to the horse. The seat is wider towards the cantle, allowing the shorter panels to have a broader surface. The boader surface distributes the rider’s weight more evenly across the back of the horse, making this saddle much more comfortable for both horse and rider.
ROOMIER SEAT
“UNISEX” TREE
NEW LOOK
The new X-Meredith saddle maintains the minimal and elegant trait typical of all its versions, but with an even more extraordinarily comfortable seat which, thanks to its unisex effect, supports the anatomy of both sexes, making the saddle even more comfortable for female riders. Compared to the previous version, the innovative X-Technology tree is slightly longer to offer an extra half size and the rear part of the seat is considerably wider, able to accommodate the two larger membranes that shock-absorb the stresses and increase the comfort. The new saddle maintains the narrow twist, typical of this model, giving a feeling of close contact. The anatomically shaped panels guarantee maximum freedom of movement for the trapezius muscles and their support base, which is wider along their entire surface, ensures a better weight distribution.

CPS TREE
The saddle is built on a tree featuring the CPS technology, that takes into account both the male and female anatomy. The rider position is deep to provide a feeling of being very close to the horse, but without blocking its movements. The blocks are also innovative, following the anatomy of the horse, and are also available on Velcro. The back of the cantle and the channel between the panels are lined with damask leather. The anatomically conformed panels guarantee maximum freedom of movement for the trapezius muscles. Thanks to the larger rear part of the saddle tree, the panels also have a larger contact surface and therefore guarantee better weight distribution. Also, the tree points are slightly angled when compared to the usual position, to allow the rider to place the saddle further forward without hindering the shoulders.

OPTICAL DETAILS
The saddle has a “unisex” tree, the first tree that makes it very comfortable for both male and female riders. It is offered with a stitching pattern and patent leather inserts that visually enhance the special features of this model (“pure” version, with no stitching and patent leather inserts on the cantle, available upon request).

The blocks are anatomically shaped for the horse. The front girth straps are secured using a heavy duty elastic, while the rear ones determine the balance of the saddle. The panels are shaped in the front to give an unmatched freedom to the shoulders. The panels are also wider along their entire length to distribute the weight of the rider more evenly in a reduced space. The three withers sizes fit all horses. The saddle must be used with the 3F021 - Trapezium Pad for a perfect fit.

THICKNESS OF THE FLAP HAS BEEN REDUCED UNDER THE SKIRTS
SHOULDER FREE PANELS
NEW LOOK
A new version of our most popular Prestige Mono-Flap Saddle. To give this saddle a more elegant look, the blocks were made thinner, while maintaining the same feeling for the rider. Smaller blocks are now available on request. The smaller blocks provide maximum freedom of movement to the rider. Changes were also made to the flaps to reduce the thickness under the thigh, giving even closer contact. The main features of the X-D2 K Free, including our unisex-effect remain unchanged. The unisex tree gives both male and female riders a pre-established place in the saddle to have an independent and balanced seat. Two membranes in the tree are designed for both the male and female anatomy. The forward position of these membranes in the tree, when compared to a traditional dressage seat, allows the perfect balance without disturbing the modern sport horses movements. The front and rear part of the tree, as well as the position of the stirrup bars, have been completely re-designed with the horse’s well fair in mind to help riders achieve maximum performance. The admiration for the X-D2 K Free started with its half-deep seat, the unique contoured and curved panels that allowed complete shoulder freedom for the horse and its curved blocks. The saddle must be used with the 3F021 - Trapezium Pad for a perfect fit.
ANATOMICAL BLOCKS CONTOUR THE HORSE’S SHOULDERS
