Results: Peak pressures were significantly less with Saddle F than S for each cell and pooled (jumping: 62–82%; dressage 55–68% difference. P = 0.01–0.0001), and left/right differences in S were not seen in F. Saddle F was associated with greater forelimb (13%) and hindlimb (22.7%) protraction, and carpal (3.5°) and tarsal (4.3°) flexion (P = 0.02– 0.0001) (dressage), and 3.7° more shoulder flexion at jump take-off (P = 0.004).
