NEW SupeRide™ Trail Saddles


SupracorÒ StimuliteÒ Honeycomb

New to the Circle Y line are the SupeRide™ Trail saddles packed with great features for horse and rider comfort.  Two models are available-the 3855 Tahoe Trail and for Gaited horses, the 3875 Yosemite Trail, which features a Gaited tree.

The most notable feature of the SupeRide™ saddles is the SupracorÒ StimuliteÒ Honeycomb incorporated between the suede skirt liner and tree bars.  SupracorÒ material has been used in the medical and aerospace industries for it's shock absorbing, weight distribution, and pressure relieving properties.  The SupracorÒ acts as a cushion between the horse and the saddle and it's "memory" means it won't break down.  The skirt is lined with suede, providing a no-slip grip, and the suede is also easier to keep clean of debris vs. fleece.

3855 Tahoe Trail
The SupeRide™ saddles have an Easy-Fit™ RalideÒ tree-slightly flexible for freedom of movement, durable, and lightweight-they weigh in at around 30-33 pounds.  The Tunnel Skirt™ eliminates pressure on the horse's spine, especially important for the horse with a protruding backbone.  The SupeRide™ saddles have a 3-Way Adjustable Position Rigging so you can rig the saddle in the position best suited to your horse.  The front dee is the full position, giving the most stability to the front of the saddle, and used in conjunction with a rear cinch.  The 7/8 position is the most popular and utilizes both dees, a good all-around rigging position.  The 3/4 position moves the pressure of the rig back away from the horse's shoulders.  This can allow a gaited horse to freely gait by preventing interference with the shoulders.

3875 Yosemite Gaited Trail
For the rider, an Impact Foam™ seat, a memory type viscoelastic foam, provides rider comfort with it's conforming properties.  SofteeÒ seat jockeys and fenders mean this saddle has a "broke in" feel right out of the box-no need to train your fenders with a broomstick!  The EBS™-ErgoBalance™ stirrup design reduces knee and ankle fatigue and promote balanced riding.  The key to this stirrup is the "cone" design that cants the stirrup slightly to equalize the pressure on the balls of your feet, reducing the torque on your joints.

The SupeRide™ saddles have brass hardware and an attractive border tooling pattern.  They are available in walnut, regular oil, or black finishes in several seat sizes.  Matching tack-headstall, breast collar, flank cinch, and saddle pads-are also available.  Suggested Retail $ 1499.  For more information, follow the link:
