Zaldi Castel-TM English Dressage Saddle with Thigh Pad (original TM-System)

The Zaldi Castel-TM is a dressage saddle designed for riders looking for maximum contact, stability and correct position. It incorporates the original Zaldi TM-System, the same system used in high-end saddles, which allows a real adjustment of the thigh block to the rider's leg, improving the fixation without stiffness and favoring a more precise and comfortable riding.

This multi-position system marks a before and after in the riding experience, the result of years of research and joint work with elite riders and the craftsmanship of more than four generations of saddlers.

Main characteristics

• TM-System original multi-position
  The thigh pad moves and adjusts to the rider's leg, creating a real contact. It allows a firm but comfortable hold, without excessive pressure or separation from the thigh.

• Customized adjustment to the rider
  The multi-position system allows regulating the height and inclination of the heel (front or back), adapting to the morphology of each rider to achieve the optimal position.

• Greater knee freedom
  As the thigh is correctly supported, the knees remain freer, facilitating aids and supports with greater ease and precision.

• High quality Boxcalf leather
  Provides softness, durability and excellent grip, improving contact and comfort when riding.

• Deep seat for maximum stability
  Promotes a balanced and secure position, ideal for the practice of dressage.

• Self-reinforcing and removable fillers
  Facilitates maintenance and adjustment to the horse's back, allowing for a more precise fit over time.
