I got a 100% mohair cinch handmade by a woman in Utah!<\/p>\n
I put it on my saddle and away I rode in the lesson. We were cantering
\ncircles and I felt that my saddle was loose. I mentioned that to Jenny after
\nthat round of cantering. I’ve had that feeling before with my neoprene
\ngirth.<\/p>\n
My turn to canter in circles again. I was on the wall and felt my saddle
\ngo…no bringing it back! I pulled Velvet really close to the corregated
\nmetal arena\u00a0wall and leaned against it as we were slowing down. I made a heck of a racket! We were almost at a stop and the saddle slipped under Velvet’s belly. I slipped to the ground.\u00a0 A nice thing about the footing in a nice arena…it’s usually deep dirt right on the wall.\u00a0 I fell into the deep dirt and nothing hurt!<\/p>\n
MY point: New Mohair girths STRETCH! Another friend of mine got a mohair
\ngirth right after my slow motion corregated fall. She rode with it…taking
\nthe time to tighten once and a while. Her new mohair girth stretched SIX
\nINCHES!<\/p>\n
\u00a0I have a new hatred of my mohair girth now.\u00a0 I’ve gone back to the trusty neoprene.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
