ThinLine or Ultra ThinLine For You and Your Horse?
Ultra ThinLine does everything ThinLine does but has an added benefit:
- Ultra ThinLine reduces rider movement improving equitation and harmony between horse and rider.
- Improves saddle fit for both custom or off the rack saddles.
Motion Detectors Show The Difference Ultra ThinLine Makes To Equitation.
Motion detectors were placed on riders. Riders of differing levels rode in a plain cotton pad or a Cotton Comfort Pad with Ultra ThinLine. Measurements were taken at the trot and canter. The grid shows the average movement.
Ultra ThinLine is the only product demonstrated by independent testing agencies to reduce rider movement and thereby improve rider equitation. Results are similar for all levels of riding.
ThinLine is ¼” thick and makes horses happier and more willing to work by making them freer in the shoulder and encourage them to lift their backs. ThinLine is a good choice when first starting a horse, working a horse hard or for beginner riders. It has enough tensile strength to distribute weight evenly over areas where the saddle may not fit perfectly.
The only real difference between ThinLine and Ultra ThinLine is thickness. But, because of the technology behind ThinLine the change in thickness makes these two pads ride and perform differently.
Ultra ThinLine is 3/16” thick and is a performance enhancing product for the rider and the horse. It still offers shock absorption and comfort for the horse, but, with this pad, the rider feels more of the effect. Ultra ThinLine noticeably reduces lower back and thigh movement, allowing the rider to sit gaits with less effort and achieve a more stable position in the saddle. The result is a quieter ride with increased effectiveness of the seat and increased communication with the horse through a closer contact feel. Ultra ThinLine is endorsed by spinal surgeons for riders with sore backs and endorsed by top professionals and competitors for better performance both for the horse and the rider. It is sold by over 95% of Master Saddlers in the USA.
