       Location: British Columbia | We drove down to Ponoka today, I was initally planning on going to Irvine's to look at the two 14.5" Crown C's they had in stock, but I stumbled on an ad for this saddle. It is the EXACT saddle I designed last night on the martin website. EXACT. The woman I bought it from ordered it, had buyers remorse before it even came in and sold it(to me) when she got it.
I rode in it for a bit today and I can say I sure like it better than My Reinsman and my old Pozzi!

       Location: British Columbia | I put it on my mare at home with my own saddle pad on, and I think I need a new pad now.
Holy heck are the skirts bigger than on my other saddles. |

I don't know why, but there was a lot of us who ordered saddles around the same time, all have the larger skirts none of us asked for it, and now the skirts went back to being normal. |

That's strange, I don't not like it, its still beautiful but it does make it look much bigger than I'm used to seeing. |

It was different, the only thing I don't like about the style is it is noticeably heavier then the normal one. |

I noticed that when I went to Irvine's right after and picked up the two they had, there was a big weight difference. |
