Sonja S. & her Criollo mare: "My little girl moves so freely thanks to the freedom along the spine and shoulders..."
"For years I kept sneaking back to the Iberosattel® stand at the Pferd Bodensee trade fair in Friedrichshafen, because I loved the craftsmanship from the very start.
At the beginning of this year the time had finally come and I booked an appointment for a saddle fitting.
That appointment kept every promise made to me at the fair: we tested for a long time and very thoroughly, and I got to, or rather had to try every single saddle - the lovely Mrs. Thoma gave me no peace until I had found my dream saddle, the one that fit both me and my little Criollo mare.
It turned out to be the Ibero Barock, which fits my small, short-backed horse perfectly. Interestingly, it had already been my favourite from the start, the one I had picked out beforehand at the fair and while browsing the (by the way, very exquisite and highly informative) brochure material.
Also included in the whole package were physio tips, for both horse and rider.
The best part was that this very saddle happened to be on sale at the time! I had no idea Ibero even did that!
That was an absolute stroke of luck for me! (Mrs. Thoma only pointed that out to me afterwards - but only right at the end - so that it wouldn't influence my choice of the right saddle.)
The saddle, then perfectly fitted to my little mare, arrived after a very short time, and ever since we have both been thrilled with our choice! I sit on it as if I had grown into it, and my little girl can move freely. During training work and on long rides alike, I am delighted with this wonderful saddle every single time.
My little girl moves so freely thanks to the freedom along the spine and shoulders! We are thrilled!
In the meantime my Criollo mare spent 4 weeks in professional training, and there too everyone was very impressed with this wonderful saddle!
The follow-up check carried out by Mr. Wolfrum also went perfectly. A little extra padding and it was done.
All in all I am happy to give 100 points for the whole package, and on behalf of my mare I would like to once again warmly thank the whole team for the wonderful all-round service and the friendly treatment.
Best regards, Sonja S."
