Light
as a Feather
The
Armadillo Airotec Saddle Pad is already well-known for wicking
the sweat away from the horse's back, as well as being incredibly
lightweight and shock absorbent.
But
designers Justin and Ally Hoon have gone even further, completely
re-thinking the design of shock absorbent pads.
Justin
Hoon, Director of Armadillo has ridden all his life.
"In our experience, most of the problems that pads created
were due to excess sweating which can cause rubbing. The horse's
skin is much more sensitive than humans. So our pad literally
PUMPS the air and sweat away, keeping the horse cool and comfortable."
Justin
continues "We have had some fantastic results. Matt Ryan
and Robert Le Mieux will not ride without an Airotec. We are
thrilled that our Saddle Pad is used by so many top riders
under seriously tough conditions."

Armadillo
are always looking for ways to improve their products, so whilst
manning their stands at shows like Burghley, Badminton and Horse
of the Year Show, Armadillo asked their customers what they wanted
in a Saddle Pad. And the answer was, it had to be LIGHTWEIGHT. Saddle
Pads are used to reduce the impact of a saddle and rider on the
horse, yet surprising, many are heavy.
So
even though the Airotec is the lightest Shock Absorbent Pad on the
market, Armadillo have re-designed it to be even lighter. New state-of-the-art
foam makes this pad even more shock absorbent than before, but incredibly,
the weight of the saddle pad has been reduced by 1/3.
The
Airotec Saddle Pad still wicks the sweat away from the horse and
absorbs the shock between the horse and rider, but is now even lighter
weight than before.
