Has anyone got any recommendations for one of the above girths?  I need to get hold of a 20" one that is elasticated at both ends.

I have tried http://www.tychetwo.co.uk/ but I think they may have gone out of business as I cannot order online, the telephone is out of order and my email was not delivered!

I need something with a forward girth as I want to try this on one of my Icy's with his vogue as it keeps slipping to the right quite badly, both with and without a rider.

Any other suggestions would of course be much appreciated!

THanks

Mattes do my personal favourite - sheepskin asymmetric girth. It is brilliant and has a good weightbearing area as well as fantastic for forward girth grooves. Smiley

Thanks Maria - do you find that these slip at all.  Having only used Professional Choice for more years than I care to remember I am a bit nervous about spending so much money on something that may not work!

I have this one

I use it with Pintos Fhoenix after my PC one walked off.  I find it keeps the saddle stable, and Pinto has a big issue with the Fhoenix slipping to one side.

Being curved it is also great for forward girth grooves Smiley

I've been considering either the norton one - or the curved leather one you find on an ebay search for curved dressage girth... waiting for February's pay day though!

My vogue stays incredibly still despite all of Candy's alarming contortions - but can be pulled forwards a bit if she really bounces hence my thought of trying a more shaped one...  rolleyes
