Bates Innova Dressage Saddle: Engineered for Precision and Performance
The Bates Innova Dressage Saddle represents the pinnacle of innovation, comfort, and performance in the world of modern dressage. Meticulously designed for serious competitors and discerning riders, this saddle is built to support perfect rider biomechanics while prioritizing your horse’s comfort and freedom of movement.
Bates Innova Dressage is Designed for a Deeper Connection
At the heart of the Bates Innova is the Contourbloc® system—a revolutionary feature that provides unparalleled support for the rider’s leg without restricting natural movement. This system helps maintain a correct leg position while enhancing stability, particularly in extended movements or collected work. The deep seat and narrow twist ensure a close contact feel, allowing the rider to connect fluidly with the horse’s motion.
The Bates Innova Dressage has Advanced Comfort Technologies
Bates is known for integrating advanced saddle technologies, and the Innova is no exception. The saddle features the CAIR® Cushion System, which replaces traditional wool flocking with air-filled panels that evenly distribute pressure across the horse’s back. This reduces the risk of pressure points and improves shock absorption, resulting in a smoother ride for both horse and rider.
Additionally, the EASY-CHANGE® Fit Solution allows riders to modify the gullet width and risers with ease, ensuring the saddle can adapt to changing horse shapes and training progress.
Horse-Friendly and Customizable
The adjustable Y-girthing system ensures an even pull across the horse’s back, helping the saddle stay stable and secure, especially during advanced lateral movements. Combined with the flexible tree and anatomical panel design, the Innova is suitable for a wide range of dressage horses, including those with high withers or sensitive backs.
