Hi Cally
If you haven't already found one I have a Decathlon thoroughgood pony saddle with irons and leathers here. Hardly used, I backed a narrow 13hh PBA pony with it and then sold her on....its sat there ever since.
Any good?

Thanks Margaux I think it may be too good , I looked on the decathlon site and its the bardette or educational first saddles I'm thinking of for not so confident kiddies ( 6 + 7 yrs ) , don't know if this is the right route though . Just want something to plonk on a little pony or a donkey perhaps

Hi Cally

My friend has got 2 bardettes for sale 1 black & 1 pink. If you are interested i will find out how much she wants for them.

Thanks Vicky yes would like to find out as I may even have more than one
thanks

Hi Cally, sorry to say they have both been sold. One of her other friends found buyers. But I will keep my eyes & ears open!

Thanks anyway Vicky x

i watched a french kiddies riding school lesson, they used an assortment of saddles, odd through wierd to strange,
i noticed the kids on the pad/bardett type sat badly, hunched up, butt stuck out behind, not a good start, those on the safari cub type sat better, the handle is good as it is raised a bit so they don't drop their hands too low,
we bought 1 here for a friends shet, i would reccomend it as a 1st saddle, since it is adjustable it should fit almost anything, we used it for kids from 2 to almost 12y(tall n skinny), the makers say up to 8y even the bigger kids were ok as it tends to make them sit up with a good length of leg.

i got this 1 as a hardly used from Ebay UK i think it cost me £20 and £10 to post, they dont weigh much with no stirrups on, bye

Interesting salee thanks

I'll have a look for the type you describe cheers
