DP Saddlery Jerez SKL 6398

Description

The DP Saddlery Jerez SKL is a stunning example of a traditional Baroque saddle reimagined for the modern rider. Combining the iconic high galleries (pommel and cantle) of the Spanish riding tradition with DP’s signature Soft Knee Area (SKL) technology, the Jerez offers an incredibly secure, deep seat without sacrificing comfort or flexibility.

Highlights

• Soft Knee Area (SKL): The “SKL” designation means this model features a continuous, softly padded knee area that seamlessly integrates with the seat. This provides exceptional comfort for the rider’s leg and prevents the feeling of being “locked in” by hard edges.

• Deep, Secure Seat: The high front and rear galleries provide maximum security, making it nearly impossible to slide out of the saddle during sudden movements or collection exercises.

• Adjustable Fit: Built on the famous Ultra-Flex Tree with the fully adjustable gullet system, you can widen or narrow the fit in seconds with an Allen wrench (K1-K5).

• Short & Compact: With an overall length of approximately 20 inches, the Jerez is remarkably compact, making it an excellent choice for short-backed horses.

Ideal Horse Conformations

The Jerez SKL is built on a versatile Baroque tree profile, making it suitable for:

• Short-Backed Horses: The compact 20-inch panel length is perfect for Arabians, Lusitanos, Andalusians, and compact Warmbloods, ensuring no pressure on the loins.

• Curvy to Moderate Backs: The tree has a natural, moderate curve that follows the sweep of a Baroque-type back beautifully.

• Various Widths: The adjustable gullet accommodates everything from narrow, high-withered builds to broad, round shoulders.

Best Activities

• Classical Dressage & High School: The deep seat and vertical leg position are designed for collection, piaffe, and passage.

• Working Equitation: Provides the security needed for speed phases and obstacles.

• Trail Riding: The high galleries offer excellent security for hacking out on spirited horses.
