The Suprabloc + £100 on standard saddle price from 01.01.12

The distinctive SMART™ RigidFree™ saddle design from Solution Saddles now comes with the option of the Suprabloc knee block system. Your saddle can be customised with the Suprabloc knee flap design at the time of order with all new SMART™ Dressage, GP and Jump saddle models.

The Suprabloc positions the knee block on the top of the knee flap. Allowing the rider to easily customise the position of the knee block to individual requirements and ‘tailor make’ the fit for a secure feel. This is of most benefit to the competition rider that requires extreme precision and accurate result.


The Suprabloc features enhance rider support and security:

It is securely held in place by a large Velcro panel, so can be easily adjusted between horses or riders.

The moulded wedge knee block sits above the riders thigh to improve security and fit.

Our highest quality soft leather covering gives the rider additional comfort.

Fitting advice

We recommend having a home consultation visit to ensure correct saddle, size and fit for both horse and rider. When you try a Solution saddle you will receive advice on correct sizing, demonstrations on how to fit, monitor and balance the saddle to any horse and rider and valuable support and advice whenever you need it.

Like any saddle system, the Solution saddle fit needs to be kept under review as the horse’s back changes shape. However, unlike any other saddle, The Solution is easy to regularly fit and adjust at home. Once the simple techniques are mastered, it becomes as easy as everyday tacking up.


Investing in the future

SRT For every SMART™ saddle sold, £50 will be donated by Solution Saddles to The Saddle Research Trust to support continued research into the effects of saddles on horse welfare, safety and performance.
