The flexibility and stretchiness of ThinLine molds around your horse’s shape. The contour of the pad, which follows the natural curve of your horse’s back, stops any bunching.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis thin endurance saddle pad frees up more room for narrow or snug-fitting saddles and improves the comfort for horses even with saddles that are perfectly fitted. ThinLine also ventilates, across the pad, allowing excess heat to move out from under the saddle.  Most importantly, to your horse, is how this pad creates stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor the rider.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe slim design puts you in closer contact with your horse, so your leg can easily drape giving you a seamless feel of his sides.  You’ll notice his back moving more,  and with the extraordinary shock absorption of ThinLine you will find yourself moving in unison with your mount.  The ThinLine layer sewn onto the pad has a 95% shock absorption rate that spreads impact \u003cem\u003eLATERALLY\u003c\/em\u003e  along the pad. This means that the motion you feel under you as you ride is absorbed by the ThinLine and transferred \u003cem\u003eACROSS\u003c\/em\u003e the pad instead of \u003cem\u003eUP\u003c\/em\u003e into your spine. This same shock absorption benefit is being enjoyed by your horse as well. With the reduced movement of your seat, your balance is easier to keep so “staying” with your horse becomes second nature. You sit quieter, and he responds with a relaxed, soft back, and freer strides.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trailrace Equestrian Outfitters","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":40014728396881,"sku":"0732-BLK","price":489.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Tan","offer_id":40014728429649,"sku":"0732-TAN","price":489.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/0963\/7457\/files\/a071d587-c678-4399-bd89-b71ce2860d98.jpg?v=1740628531","url":"https:\/\/checkout.theequestrian.com.au\/products\/thinline-endurance-wax-tough-rider-pad","provider":"The Equestrian","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
