ThinLine Inc. introduced their new Pro-Ride Western Felt Saddle Pad this month and top western riding professionals are already singing the revolutionary new saddle pad’s praises. “The Pro-Ride was developed after several requests from western riders,” explained Elaine Lockhead, president of ThinLine, Inc., “Riders wanted a felt pad with the shock absorption and performance design that our sheepskin pad offers.” The Pro-Ride Pad was designed to reduce impact on the rider’s lower back while still providing a close contact feel for increased rider stability. The pad also offers a number of features to enhance the horse’s performance. The Pro-Ride pad features the revolutionary ThinLine open-cell foam construction to relieve pressure points and decrease back stress. In addition, the saddle pad is designed to free the horse’s shoulder movement encouraging suppleness and relaxation. The ThinLine Pro-Rider Western Felt pad is made by Classic Equine, a manufacturer well known for producing top quality, durable equestrian products.
Top professionals tested the Pro-Ride Western felt Pad and gave the pad very high marks on performance, comfort and durability. Seth and Jon Ingram of Ingram Training Stables and winner’s of nine world championship reining titles and several top 10 futurity horses, tested an initial Pro-Ride pad and then ordered the pads for their entire string. “I was impressed with the fit, feel and comfort of the pad,” said Seth Ingram. “I especially like the cut, as it allows for free movement of my horse’s shoulders and the length is perfect so my saddle sits comfortably.”
Top western clinician, Mark Hausman also gave the ThinLine Pro-Rider high praise, “Finally, a performance saddle pad that makes it possible for both the horse and rider to be comfortable at the same time. What a difference!” From two-year olds just being started under saddle to seasoned roping, cutting and all-around ranch horses, the ThinLine Pad is perfect for any riding discipline. The incredible shock absorption is actually noticeable from the saddle. We are very pleased with the results the pads help us to achieve. The western horse world has finally found a better solution to age old problem,” Hausman
exclaimed.
Spinal Surgeon and author of the “The Rider’s Pain-Free Back,” Dr. James Warson was equally impressed with the Pro-Ride pad. “This is the most perfect Western pad I have ever used. The immediate impression is one of absolute unity of contact, something rarely felt in a Western saddle. The contact is fabulous, the support and cushioning are marvelous, and it feels like the pad and saddle work truly as a unit and are literally one with the horse,” said Dr. Warson.
The new ThinLine Pro-Ride Western Felt pad is now available online and in western tack stores throughout the U.S. For more information on the complete line of ThinLine products, visit www.thinlinepads.com or call 1-888-401-910.
