Saddles
Saddles are seats for the rider, fastened to the horse's back by means
of a girth (English-style riding) or cinch (Western-style), a wide strap
that goes around the horse at a point about four inches behind the
forelegs. Some western saddles will also have a second strap known as a
flank or back cinch that fastens at the rear of the saddle and goes
around the widest part of the horse's belly.[1]
It is important that the saddle is comfortable for both the rider and
the horse—an improperly fitting saddle may create pressure points on the
horse's back muscle (Latissimus dorsi) and cause the horse pain and can
lead to the horse, rider, or both getting injured.
There are many types of saddles, each specially designed for its given
task. Saddles are usually divided into two major categories, "English
saddles" and "Western saddles" according to riding discipline they are
used in. Other types of saddles, such as racing saddles, Australian
saddles, and endurance saddles do not fit in either category.[1]
A treeless saddle - A new class of saddles have no tree inside (treeless
saddles); they are mainly used for pleasure and trail riding and
endurance.
