ABSTRACT:
Equestrian saddle pads, especially adapted for energy or impact absorption, so as to save the horse. The saddle pad is characterized by a pair of side flaps hinged along a common axially extending top edge alignable with the vertabra of a horse such that each side flap extends over the top sides of the horse. An inner pocket is conformed in each side flap so as to contain an impact absorbing foam core. The foam core includes a center of open cell foam, enclosed by inner and outer layers of closed cell foam. The open cell center provides an impact absorbing air system. The inner and outer layers of closed cell foam contribute to energy absorption and, also, enable the pad to mold to each horse's individual conformation, thereby eliminating pressure points that cause soreness.
