Saddle Information:
NZ's most popular Amerigo! The Vega Jump Special, is well, just that! Superb for horse and rider, providing an
unbelievably close feel using advanced saddle technology to incorporate wool panels in a close contact saddle without
compromising on fit.
Vega Saddles are made using a specially created synthetic tree with a lifetime guarantee* that has a tempered steel head iron. It
reflects the most popular measurements and has produced a flexible saddle that is suitable for many horses and riders.
The jump special is made in beautiful PINEROLO Italian Calfskin providing extra grip in the saddle and a “broken in” feel.
Wool flocked independent panels, which can be made with different levels of volume to suit each horse. Each panel is produced
individually by hand and requires great skill to ensure that two equal panels are produced. Such a panel system provides many advantages in
terms of fit for the horse. The absence of any ‚ends’ or pre formed stitching (gussets) on the horse, with the panels blending out away from
the horse, and becoming flatter and wider with use, means that they offer a very precise and individual fit, even if used on many horses.
They can also be adjusted or changed very easily as well as being low maintenance.
Re flocking on a regular basis is not required.

Many years of experience of working with world class riders and their horses, across all disciplines means that the Amerigo designer, Peter
Menet, has a wealth of knowledge on how saddle design can influence the horses movement and performance both positively and negatively. His
extensive knowledge of the biomechanics of both horse and rider, allow him to create saddles that influence both horse and rider in a
positive way, improving the performance and also the long term health of the horse. Placing the riders weight in an area where the horse can
carry it easily means that it can round its back, and the hindlegs step further under the horses point of balance, carrying more weight on
the hindquarters. This results in the horse being able to stretch through its topline and over the wither which is essential for any level
of collection, whether jumping or dressage. A horse that is working with a saddle that allows it to work with its own body, instead of
against it, will have a much happier mental attitude to work, and also a healthier body, keeping it performing at a good level for much
longer time.
