FAQs
Is this pad suitable for show jumping?
Yes, its GP shape and secure attachments make it suitable for both flatwork and jumping disciplines.
Can I use biological detergent to clean the pad?
It is recommended to use a non-biological detergent to maintain the integrity of the fabrics and prevent irritation to the pony's skin.
Why shouldn't I leave the pad in the sun?
Direct, strong sunlight can fade the fabric and cause the materials to become brittle, shortening the lifespan of the product.
Is the pad machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius on a gentle cycle.
Does this pad fit a full-sized horse?
This pad is specifically shaped for ponies and may not provide the correct coverage or wither clearance for a full-sized horse.
Will the girth loops fit all girth widths?
The loops are designed to accommodate standard pony-sized girths effectively.
Troubleshooting
The pad slides backward during riding.
Ensure that the D-ring attachments are securely fastened to your saddle and that the girth is tightened appropriately through the provided loops.
Fabric appearing worn or thin at the girth area.
This is normal wear, but ensure your girth is clean and free of debris, which can act as an abrasive agent against the ballistic nylon.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the pad, align the high-wither section with the gullet of your saddle before fastening the D-ring straps. The pad is compatible with most GP and jumping saddles sized for ponies. For maintenance, machine wash the pad at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius on a gentle cycle, preferably using a non-biological detergent to preserve the material's softness. Always dry the pad naturally in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight, as UV rays can weaken the nylon and degrade the color. Do not tumble dry, as the heat can compromise the foam padding density.
