I am quite an experienced rider and have a deep, secure seat in the saddle but am looking for a little more comfort. You also mentioned that you wear a size large.....would you recommend that size for a 32" waist? Have you tried any other brands?>Thanks for your help!>Ethan The one I've tried is http://www.dans-ez.com/products.asp?ID=35The size is L - sorry, I don't remember what waist range this corresponds to. It's unpadded and made from a cotton-lycra mix that isn't very stretchy: I would like to try a nylon-lycra blend (like Wearmoi) to see if it has more give, and whether this is a good thing for riding. I think it might be, as it is for jods. In many ways the issues for dancers and riders are similar: (in order - protection, freedom of movement, visibility of line for instructors, bulge-prevention..) Sorry, rambling a bit. I'd be interested to hear how you get on. Happy riding! >>Ethan,>>I have found a dance belt great for riding: both for protection and for aesthetics if wearing tight jodhpurs or breeches. You need to make sure your genitals are pulled up from out between your legs: this will stop them from getting caught between you and the saddle (ouch!), particularly at trot.>>I wear a dans-ez belt (size L): not sure what you mean by a seam behind the genitals, but it's comfortable. You say your crotch rests on the saddle? Some people say that you should be sitting on your seat-bones and that your saddle must be too small or your seat is too forward. Classical dressage folks would disagree - in the three-point seat, the crotch is the front of the seat. This alone is a justification for using a dance belt, although not at the expense of developing a firm, controlled seat overall.>>Hope this helps.>> Antworten zu diesem Beitrag: |
