ThinLine Euro Roll Wool Jumper Saddle Pad
Description
ThinLine Euro Roll Wool Jumper Pad
The ThinLine Euro Roll Wool Jumper Pad is a woven wool jumper pad with two panels of shock-absorbing ThinLine foam and a dense merino wool lining needled onto a synthetic hide. It is best for jumping riders and everyday schooling horses that need genuine impact protection under the saddle without losing the traditional look of a wool Euro roll pad.
A raised wither profile accommodates horses with more top line, while a spine channel, shorter-sheared centre sheepskin and the ThinLine panels combine to create a spine-free centre band. A pocket under the ThinLine allows saddle fitting shims to be added when a saddle fitter advises it.

How to Use
- Place the pad on the horse's back slightly forward of the saddle position, then slide it back along the direction of the coat.
- Position the saddle on top and fasten the short D-ring straps to the billets so the pad stays put.
- Pull the pad well up into the gullet of the saddle so the spine channel sits clear of the withers and backbone.
- Girth up gradually and re-check the wither clearance before mounting.
- If saddle balance needs adjusting, add shims into the pocket under the ThinLine on the advice of a qualified saddle fitter.
- After riding, brush off hair and dried mud and allow the wool and sheepskin to air dry away from direct heat.

FAQ
How much shock absorption does this pad give?
The ThinLine panels provide impact (shock) absorbency of over 95%, and unlike foam pads that compress, ThinLine does not bottom out, move or degrade with use.
Will it fit a horse with a high or prominent wither?
The pad has a raised wither profile designed to accommodate more top line, along with a spine channel and a spine-free centre band. Always pull the pad up into the saddle gullet so it clears the withers once girthed.
Can I use shims with this pad?
Yes. There is a pocket underneath the ThinLine for adding saddle fitting shims. Shimming is best done on the advice of a qualified saddle fitter, as it alters how the saddle sits.
Is it suitable for jumping only?
It is cut as a jumper pad, so it suits jumping and general flatwork in a close contact or jump saddle. Riders in a dressage saddle should choose a dressage-cut pad instead.
Does it get hot under the saddle?
The pad is breathable, with a 3-D mesh spine band for extra airflow and merino wool that helps move moisture away from the back.
How do I care for the wool and sheepskin?
Brush off dried mud and loose hair after use and allow the pad to air dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to protect the wool fibres and the synthetic hide backing.
