Amanda Howell is an Olympic Rider from Australia.

"I have found the major difference with my saddles with the CAIR Panel System is that all contact with the horses back is smoother. Because of this, I think both horse & rider feel more comfortable with each other — the horse stays softer over the back, & the rider can sit more correctly & comfortably as a result of this. I find I can go into sitting trot without needing to warm up the horses back for as long, because the contact between horse & rider is more cushioned. It's usually a case of which comes first — the horse being soft over the back so the rider can sit, or the rider sitting in order to ride the horses back up & soft. CAIR allows both parties to work together, & I will recommend it 100% to all riders, whether it's a young rider still developing a good seat, or an experienced rider schooling demanding movements."
