Shimming At A Glance

As you well know by now, each horse comes with a set of shapes unique to its individual conformation and postural structure at a given point in time.

When riding multiple horses, our graphic ‘SHIMMING AT A GLANCE’ is a handy quick reference guide to help you be confident in setting up your saddle for each horse at each moment.

It includes a ‘shim checklist’ reminder of the simple, yet often forgotten steps to a magical custom saddle fit.

Follow the links and select the relevant graphic for you.
