I saw some of his Ortho Flex saddles years ago but never rode in one. They were too funky to my liking but I also had a friend that rode a very hard horse to fit in what he called his bare bones that worked for her horse. It was basically a stripped down saddle without leather. He finally figured out the Ortho Flex wasn't working like he thought and has now developed his latest trees.

I rode an Ortho Flex made by him for several years back in the 90s. It worked really well for the one horse, but it had a high center of gravity and was hard to ride going fast even though it was very balanced. I haven't tried his new design.

Ditto, my dad had a rope saddle and it perched me way up on the horse. His was from the 90s also.

cavyrunsbarrels - 2016-06-19 11:40 PM Yeah I have no interest in the ortho flexes he made back in the day. I'm really interested in the new ones on the CorrecTOR site.
I've never seen one. But hey, we helped keep your post bumped up!
