The NO-RUB INVINCIBLE CROCK is the version of the TURN & BURN that cuts the Constant friction between saddle & horse at the loins. WE ARE SPENDING EXTRA to make a PAD THAT LOOKS GREAT for Years and you simply wipe off to clean The patented system, inside the Pad, is placed with 3" of EXTENSION at front of your saddle to ride on & PROTECT the SHOULDERS. The 1/10" thick aircraft plastic shields,(shown on horse below) have 112" of 1/8" slots for venting & heat transfer & are the secret to passive control of saddle pressures. They are pre-molded to a basic horse-shape where they ride up on the shoulders protecting them during rotation, bending, & stopping. WHAT KEEPS THIS SADDLEPAD IN PLACE? The Saddle pressures HOLD the rear 2/3rds of the front shields down while the shoulders ARE bending them upwards. THE PAD IS CAUGHT between these 2 OPPOSING forces. THIS IS WHAT HOLDS IT IN PLACE & POSITIONS YOUR SADDLE! This Barrel Pad comes with a 3mm FELT LINER Pad for closer contact and NO BREAK-IN (or the FLEECE LINER option ($30 extra) has the fleece is glued & sewn to the 3mm FELT LINER. Both have a marine Vinyl Re-enforcement center strip. The Short Turn & Burn is only 27" at top center & 29" at the wear leather & 32" wide. It is great for 23" & shorter saddles. If your saddle is longer, the Turn & Burn is available in a 29/31 size for 24 & up to 25" square skirted Barrel Saddles. The fleece option makes a thick pad, I don't recommend for the round backs. It's great for the young or withered horse though. Call Len with any questions , 816 806 4742
