PDS Euro Pro Dressage Design
The PDS Euro Pro is designed for riders looking for a dressage saddle that combines a supportive seat with a close-contact feel. Current product information describes the Euro Pro as focusing on rider control and balance while providing freedom of movement for the horse. The design also uses European double leather on current models.
The deep seat and large knee blocks provide additional support for the rider, while the lightweight carbon-fibre tree contributes to the saddle’s relatively lightweight construction.
17.5″ Seat and Rider Position
This saddle has a 17.5″ stamped seat with a measured seat size of approximately 44.5 cm. The flap measures approximately 43 cm from the stirrup bar.
The Euro Pro’s dressage-oriented seat and knee support are designed to help the rider maintain a balanced position while retaining a close connection with the horse.
Adjustable MW Gullet
A Medium Wide (MW) gullet is currently fitted to this saddle. It uses the Pessoa Series 1 X-Change gullet system, with compatible sizes from M through 2XW according to the supplied specification and current Euro Pro listings. (Saddle Central)
The gullet can be changed to suit the horse, with a gullet alteration service available for an additional fee.
Because saddle fit is individual to each horse and saddle, the correct gullet should be confirmed with a qualified saddle fitter before purchase or alteration.
Flocked Panels and Channel
The Euro Pro has flock-filled panels with an approximately 45 cm panel length. The channel measures approximately 7.5 cm midway and 8 cm at the rear.
The panel length refers to the section of the panel intended to contact the horse’s back rather than the total physical panel length.
Condition
This is a pre-owned PDS Euro Pro Dressage Saddle in excellent condition, showing normal signs of previous use. It is finished in black and retains the adjustable gullet configuration and flocked panel construction associated with the model.
