Stunning Devoucoux Makila Harmonie S monoflap dressage saddle with a narrower twist for a closer contact ride, standard/forward flaps, and upgraded full buffalo leather. This saddle features Devoucoux’s GT panel, which offer a sweat resistant and hypoallergenic option that also keeps the planet in mind, as well as the Dynamick® saddle tree, which is a lighter composite tree that can flex with the horse’s back.
From the Devoucoux website:
“Pushing the limits of proximity between the rider and horse, a major challenge accomplished using a slim design which ensures increased close contact:
- The narrow twist combined with ergonomic knee blocks ensures optimal engagement for the rider and improves leg alignment
- The perfect balance of freedom of movement and support for the rider
- The pre-formed flaps closely fit the horse’s morphology
- Unparalleled close contact and responsiveness to the rider’s commands
- The Dynamick® saddle tree combining lightness and flexibility for the horse’s back
- The flared form of padding spreads the rider’s weight more evenly while allowing the horse greater muscular freedom “
From the Devoucoux website about the GT Panel: “The new GT Option is revolutionary to saddle design and production. With its GT finish based on cork scraps, recycled cork stoppers and mesh in recycled plastic bottles, Devoucoux has chosen to take action and offer an alternative to its customers concerned about the ecological transition and animal welfare. Devoucoux is pursuing eco-friendly actions, and we are always working to respect your commitment”
