Engineered for competitive ADVANTAge
Thank you Flo@teamfloeventing, I couldn't have put it better myself!
“The best thing about the Bates Advanta saddle is that I feel so secure! Within 2 days of having the saddle I used it for a British Eventing horse trials and it was amazing. The leather is so soft it felt like it was made to measure. I’ve tried other close contact saddles but this felt like I had so much contact with my pony which made me feel so safe. I love the blocks being on top of the saddle as you don’t get a curved saddle flap. I’ve jumped higher than before just because I feel so secure! My pony moves more freely too, he feels more supple and less restricted. I knew straight away that it was the saddle for me”. Flo @teamfloeventing
The Bates Momentum Saddle is the ultimate performance tool for serious eventers, the Bates Momentum delivers a seamless transition from your seat along your inner thigh for immediate contact with the horse.
The forward cut flap and a low, narrow waist enable the rider to sit into, rather than onto the saddle, so you won’t get left behind.
The Bates Caprilli Close Contact saddle offers a supportive seat for the rider to ensure safe, comfortable landings.
Whether commencing your jumping career or competing at the highest level, enjoy exceptional balance and comfort. Broad and tapered panels offer tremendous support for the horse’s back, enabling greater freedom of movement.
I've recently had a few very successful fits with the Caprilli CC. The adjustability in the width and with the easy change risers allows us to refine the fit and make it perfect for the horse. Rider's have commented that they find the Cair System allows them a close feel to the horse. This, combined with the open seat and adjustable knee roll allows for free range of movement over fences and a good sense of security.
One customer in particular ordered this saddle in the Luxe leather in brown. It is beautiful. The Luxe leather is so lovely and grippy, it looks and feels like a high quality saddle. If you were thinking of getting a Caprilli, I'd really recommend looking at the Luxe leather option.
Joining forces with elite showjumpers, Bates Saddles pioneered the world’s first truly close contact jump saddle that is focused on both horse and rider performance.
This saddle achieves unprecedented close contact, perfect balance and stability for the rider. For the horse, it features an anatomic tree that reduces any inclination for the saddle to lift, offers a completely customisable fit and the leading panel system for unparalleled impact absorption and comfort.
This high performance model features the added performance advantage of double-lined Opulence leather, renowned for its ultra soft and grippy characteristics, increasing rider feel and comfort.
Engineered for precision performance, combining technical design and innovation to raise the bar for both horse and rider.
High performance seat is shaped to maintain breadth behind your seat ensuring comfortable landings, whilst thinning it right down where your leg drops on to the horse, so that the transition is ultra narrow and seamless. The precise cantle angle encourages you to find your central position with ease.
An anatomically shaped tree enables greater comfort and room for the horse’s shoulder, while retaining a close contact feel for the rider. It reduces the occurrence of lifting at the back, which is often accepted with jumping saddles.
