A "jumping saddle" is a type of equestrian saddle specifically designed for show jumping and other jumping disciplines. It features a deeper seat and a forward-placed flap, allowing the rider to maintain balance and control while the horse jumps. The design helps the rider stay in a secure position during the jump. These saddles often have knee rolls and thigh blocks for added support, enhancing the rider's stability. Made from durable materials, a jumping saddle is crafted to withstand the rigors of jumping while providing comfort for both the horse and rider. Proper fitting is essential for optimal performance in events like show jumping.
