>>>> Saw the Jillaroo mentioned on the treeless list...has anyone tried it? http://loristack.com/efaus.htm
When you look at the underside of the "panels", they look kind of kind of lumpy and uneven, giving me the impression it's not anywhere nearly as nice quality as some of the other brands - Sensations particularly, and also Torsions and BMSS. Maybe, they'd smooth out with use though - I don't know. I'll be waiting to hear the report, and I guess it's nice to have more options... but I'm not going to rush out and try one. I'm not sure I like the idea of panels on the treeless saddles either. I sort of like having the pad and saddle separate - would it be easy to change the foam inserts in these panels, or add shims like you can with, for instance, a Skito pad? If the panels aren't shaped right for the horse, I'd think you wouldn't have the flexibility that you have with the non-paneled treeless models.
