Optima underside
Our
gusseted WOOL-FLOCKED panels have a
wide and deep channel to protect the
spine and promote air circulation.
These panels are shock absorbing,
move with the horse, and distribute
the rider's weight evenly.
We use only the finest quality
smooth leather, vegetably tanned and
aniline dyed... soft and supple, yet
tanned for durability, long a
Courbette trademark. |

The OPTIMA is Courbette's most versatile close contact and
multi-purpose saddle. It's ergonomic design is for riders
who enjoy several disciplines, and who like to do it all in
one saddle.
Handcrafted
on our "Federbaum" spring tree with recessed
stirrup bars. The medium deep seat is wider than most, soft
padded, and has a narrow twist for rider comfort. The semi
cut-back low pommel allows a close contact fit, even on
horses with high and/or long withers. Most importantly, the
low pommel does not interfere with the rider. A generous
sitting area provides proper support and encourages the
rider's full use of seat and back.
The flaps are slightly longer and straighter than on
ordinary close contact saddles - allowing a leg position
judges will appreciate. Soft padded knee inserts over long
concealed knee rolls emphasize the versatility of the truly
remarkable OPTIMA.
Adjustable and removable rear blocks on Velcro offer
precision support and peace of mind.
