Traditional Ghost Base
SemiFlexx Base
This base is more flexible laterally at the front / the "wings" of the saddle allowing for big shoulder movement, but remains sturctured along the length of the base maintaining a narrow twist. This base is available in either standard/narrow or wide.
Flexx Base
The most flexible saddle base, this base utilises many of the flexible features of the Cavallin BBP base, such that it's flexible along the length of the base and laterally, while maintaining superior weight distribution, shock absorption and spinal clearance through the use of the panels and a modified base body. Wide and narrow options available
Cavallin Bareback Pad Base
Also considered the close contact base, this base doesn't use the Ghost panels, but a saddle pad which attaches to the base containing thin inserts suitable for light ridden work.
More about the
cavallin BBP Base
This base is different than the bases used as saddles, as the Cavallin BBP base doesn't use panels, but instead uses a saddle pad that attaches to the base which contains thin inserts to provide spinal clearance, weight distribution and shock absorption suitable for light ridden work with minimal stirrup use.
Stirrup leathers attach via the broad Velcro stirrup hanger.
The Cavallin BBP base provides a fixed, integrated cantle in the base, which provides extra support to the rider.
Girth rigging can come fixed (like in the example below), or can be made to accomodate the interchangeable girth rigging.
Works with any Cavallin BBP Seat
