Abetta endurance saddle

[elleng]

I am thinking about getting one of these to ride trails in since my dressage saddle is not too comfortable on long trail rides. Can anyone give me their experiences with these? Good bad or indifferent.

Thanks
Ellen

Im not an Abetta person. I do know what to tell you about them
I do have a Trekker endurance saddle that is THE BOMB.
I love it
Here is a link to where you can see it. Scroll down to the bottom on page 2, it is the neutron one, meaning it has cordura on it.
Mine is black with horn.

I ride english/dressage mainly but think an endurance saddle might be a nice thing for some of the longer trail rides. Not looking to spend a ton of money on it but am going to an auction next week and will see what deals are out there.

I ride western. Thats why I got the endurance with a horn. You can get them either way.
Actually, the price has come way down on those too. The endurance is the IN thing now and everyone is buying them..lol. I paid around 450.00 last yr for that saddle. I get sick seeing the prices so low now.
That is not the only place you can find them. Search around. It is a King Series Trekker endurance saddle.

Yes I see that they've come down. I'm really looking for something that is fairly lightweight as both of my english saddles are synthetic.
