The Erreplus Vittoria Dressage saddle is a premium, modern dressage saddle from Erreplus Italian Saddlery. It's designed to be a close-contact saddle that seamlessly blends tradition with cutting-edge technology, specifically for the modern sport horse.
Key Features:
Monoflap Design: As a monoflap saddle, the Vittoria offers an exceptional close-contact feel, allowing the rider to feel the horse's movements more directly and communicate with subtler aids.
Broad, Open Pommel: A standout feature is the saddle's broad, open head/pommel. This is designed to ensure maximum shoulder freedom and prevent pinching, which is crucial for modern dressage horses with powerful shoulders and deep movement.
Fully Adjustable Synthetic Tree: The saddle is built on a lightweight, synthetic tree that can be fully and precisely adjusted in width by a qualified saddle fitter using a heat machine. This allows for a "forever custom fit" as the horse changes shape. The tree's width is measured in centimeters (e.g., 32cm, 34cm).
Flock Filled Panels: The panels are filled with flock (synthetic wool) and are designed to be independent of the tree. This allows a saddle fitter to adjust the panel shape and even the channel width to fine-tune the fit for the horse's unique back. Some models may feature "Z panels" for a flatter fit.
Deep or Open Seat Options: The Vittoria is available with either an open seat (for greater freedom of movement) or a deep seat (for a more vertical, supported posture). It also offers a narrow twist option for the deep seat version.
Forward-Positioned Blocks: The firm, anatomically shaped blocks are placed to support the rider's leg in a forward position, providing support without blocking the rider's range of movement.
What Horse Shapes It Is More Likely to Suit:
The Erre Plus Vittoria is specifically designed for the modern dressage horse and is highly adaptable due to its adjustable tree and flocking.
"Big Movers" with Prominent Shoulders: The broad, open pommel and shoulder relief design are specifically intended for horses with powerful, prominent shoulders and well-developed trapezius muscles, allowing for a completely free range of motion.
Horses with Short Backs: The panel design, which is often short, makes the Vittoria a great option for horses with more compact backs.
Horses with Developing or Changing Shapes: The ability to professionally adjust the tree and have the panels re-flocked makes this saddle a sound investment for young horses or horses whose shape fluctuates due to training or seasonal changes.
Horses Needing Excellent Spinal Clearance: The independent panels can be adjusted to create a wider channel, which is very useful for horses with a wide or exposed spine.
Horses with Flat to Medium-Curved Backs: The flocked panels allow for custom molding to a variety of back shapes. Some panel types, like the "Z panels," are specifically designed for flatter-backed horses.
