HAF Equitation has its origin in Endurance riding and has never stopped supporting this sport. In this sport the quick evaporation of heat from the horse's back is critical along with a pad that offers great support from the pressure of the rider's weight over great distances. HAF Equitation has been refining their saddle pads in particular for the endurance sport for the last 10 years.
The
HAF 5200 Reining Gold Pad is a very well made and cleverly designed treeless saddle pad that fits perfectly under many styles of saddles. It adds stability to any saddle and is widely used for many treeless models and riding modalities. The
HAF 5200 Reining Gold Pad has a soft Sympanova lining which does not absorb the horse's sweat and is very skin friendly. The nodules of the Sympanova material gently massage the horse and create some airflow and cooling. Riders love this saddle pad for it's practicality. You can just wipe down or hose off the pad after the ride or throw into the washing machine.
The Dry Sec top layer with its net type structure allows quick evaporation and cooling for the horse. This material is very strong and wear resistant and very easy to clean.
The HAF pad comes standard with one layer of soft open cell foam. Superior natural rubber inserts are available for heavyweight and/or endurance riders or riders with high withered horses.
