Prestige Jumping Saddle Configurator Instinct CPS

The Prestige Instinct CPS jumping saddle is an absolute must-have for riders who value comfort and an optimal seat position. With its outstanding features and unique selling points, this saddle sets new standards in riding comfort and flexibility.

A highlight of the Instinct CPS saddle is its wide and comfortable seat. Whether jumping or cross-country, the rider can lean back and enjoy the ride to the fullest. The semi-deep seat with CPS technology also ensures optimal balance and a central position on the horse.

The pommel of the saddle is wider than on conventional models. This allows the rider to saddle further forward without hindering the horse's shoulders. This enables even better influence on the horse and improved communication between rider and horse.

The Instinct CPS saddle also takes care of the horse's well-being. The panels are specially relieved at shoulder height to give the horse additional freedom of movement. Even horses with pronounced shoulders benefit from this innovative design.

The panels are not only particularly wide on the sides, but also at the front and back. This ensures maximum comfort for the horse. Particularly impressive is the excellent shoulder freedom and flexibility that the saddle offers from the outset.

Rider comfort is also a priority with the Instinct CPS saddle. The seat rubber has a double density, which provides a soft yet firm seat. This allows the rider to concentrate fully on their ride without losing stability.

The saddle flaps of the Instinct CPS saddle are reinforced to support the rider's position. Even during demanding maneuvers, the saddle remains in shape and allows the rider optimal influence on the horse.

Another highlight is the independent third girth strap of the Instinct CPS saddle. This ensures optimal flexibility in the positioning of the saddle. This allows every rider to individually adapt the saddle to their needs.

Prestige Saddle Configurator
Here you will find the options for individually configuring your Prestige saddle. Please note that not every option is available for every model.
First, select the leather type as a variation (if multiple leather types are available). In the next step, click the "Configure" button and follow the individual steps. Finally, you can add the selected configuration to your shopping cart and complete the purchase.
Please note the delivery time of the saddle. Usually, the saddle is produced individually according to your selection criteria.

For this reason, a configured saddle cannot be returned (right of withdrawal).

Saddle Tree
The saddle tree is predefined for each model and cannot be selected individually. You can find out which saddle tree is installed in which model in the product description of the saddle.
The following saddle trees are available from Prestige:

Standard
The standard Prestige saddle tree is made of plastic. The material is particularly stable, resistant to external influences such as moisture, and lightweight. The gullet width can be thermally changed with a special machine.

X-Technology Tree

Depending on the saddle model, this saddle tree has one or no cutout in the front part and two cutouts in the rear area where the seat bones rest. The cutouts are covered with elastic rubber membranes.

Advantages
The membranes increase the rider's comfort and stability. For female riders, the feeling of comfort and stability is even more pronounced with trees that offer a wider seat in the rear part, such as the X-D2, X-Perience, and X-Contact K models (unisex effect).

For whom does X-Technology make sense?
• For those who seek a feeling of closeness to the horse: it is guaranteed by the membranes on which the rider's seat bones rest when sitting in the saddle;
• for those who want a more comfortable seat while maintaining athletic performance;
• for those riders who want more stability in the saddle. X-D2, X-Perience, and X-Contact K, thanks to the "unisex effect," can give women with a wider pelvis, who often have difficulty achieving a close connection to the horse, a predefined but not forced position.

X-Breath Tree

Depending on the saddle model, this saddle tree has one or two oval cutouts in the center of the seat. The cutout is covered with an ultra-elastic honeycomb fabric, which guarantees an anatomically comfortable position for the rider that is also balanced for the horse. The cutout also provides more breathability.

It is a technology applied to the saddle tree and consists of an oval cutout in the center of the rear part of the tree. This cutout is covered by an elastic and breathable honeycomb fabric. In the X-BREATH K, there is an additional cutout in the front part of the tree.

Advantages
These cutouts provide better breathability and reduce the heat endured by the horse and rider. The rear cutout makes the seat more comfortable by relieving the spine from the stresses it normally experiences. In addition, saddles with X-Breath technology are lighter.

For whom does X-Breath Technology make sense?
• For those who like a breathable and comfortable seat;
• for those riders who desire physical well-being by reducing the strain on the spine and tailbone;
• for those who are looking for a lighter saddle;
• for those who have a downhill feeling on the horse or ride a thoroughbred.

CPS Tree or "Coccyx-Protection-System"

A saddle tree with a new geometric shape with injected membranes and a
differentiated capacity to absorb all stresses and movements. This concept was developed to protect the seat bones, tailbone, and back and is visible through the soft Plexiglas viewing window at the bottom of the saddle.

Advantages
These membranes dampen all stresses and movements while protecting the rider's seat bones, tailbone, and back. They were developed with the anatomy of men and women in mind.

For whom does CPS Technology make sense?
• For those who want a more elastic and softer seat: the central gray
• membrane creates a shock-absorbing feeling for the rider's spine and for the horse;
• for those who desire physical well-being;
• for those riders who are looking for a comfortable seat. The tree with this technology is particularly intended for female riders due to the wider rear part
• for riders who have a downhill feeling on the horse and have difficulty finding a balanced position;
• for dressage riders who have difficulty finding a deep seat feeling with a downhill-built horse;
• for show jumpers who want to get back in the saddle faster after a jump.

Leather Type and Color
There are the following leather variants and colors to choose from

Cuoio
Prestige's standard leather is a smooth full-grain leather or textured leather.

D
doubled small and large saddle flaps. In calfskin or cowhide. Thickness: 4.3mm.

Lux
oiled doubled calfskin or 4.5mm thick textured leather that undergoes long tanning for optimal grip.

Super
4.5mm thick, very soft and robust textured leather that undergoes natural tanning.

Elite
doubled small and large saddle flaps (5.2mm thickness). Smooth leather or textured leather that undergoes natural tanning.

Seat Size
The seat size is an important aspect when buying a saddle, as this size cannot be changed later. When choosing the seat size, the contact area of the horse's back, the size or leg length, and the weight of the rider should play a role.
Recommended maximum weight for each seat size:

• Seat size 15: 40 kg
• Seat size 16: 41-55 kg
• Seat size 17: 56-79 kg
• Seat size 18: 80-120 kg

Gullet Width
In most Prestige models, you can choose a gullet width from 31 to 37. The gullet widths from 31 to 37 are always 1 cm wider or narrower for each gullet width compared to the standard size 33 (measured at the end of the tree points). For the models X-D2, X-D2 K, X-D2 K FREE, X-D1, X-D1 K, X-D1 SC, and D1 SC, the tree sizes are divided as follows:

• S: up to gullet width 32
• M: gullet widths 33 and 34 (X-D2 K Free 32 and 33)
• L: from gullet width 35

Saddle Panels
Wool panels or Classic padded panels
Classic saddle panels filled with synthetic wool. These panels are very easily adaptable by a saddle fitter.

LPF Panels:
Panels filled with synthetic Dacron fiber, honeycomb mesh, and a thin rubber layer. Thanks to this special composition, these panels are lighter than classic panels. These panels are also very easily adaptable by a saddle fitter. LPF (Light Performance Fit) panels consist of an Airnet cover and foam towards the horse's back. The filling is made of Dacron, a synthetic wool fiber.

Advantages
These panels are light, elastic, and easily modifiable. They also adapt very well to the modern horse. These panels combine the reduced thickness and feeling of being close to the horse typical of latex panels with the shock-absorbing and highly adaptable properties of a padded panel.

For whom do LPF panels make sense?
For those riders who do not want to give up the feeling of being close to the horse, but believe that a saddle that fits optimally is an essential prerequisite for the horse's well-being and performance.

Latex Panels:
Preformed foam panels made of expanded polyurethane.

 
Saddle Flaps
Basically, a distinction is made between standard saddle flaps, i.e., double saddle flaps with a sweat flap on the horse and a saddle flap or large saddle pocket on top, and mono saddle flaps (K), in which only one saddle flap is installed. The mono variant usually allows for slightly closer contact with the horse's body and always has long girth straps.
The saddle flap is always fixed for the model and cannot be configured. For monoflap saddles, you will always find a K in the saddle name.

• Standard: Double flap saddles
• K: Monoflap saddles

Saddle Flap Forward Cut
The forward cut describes the forward design of the saddle flap. Especially riders with particularly long legs usually find more space for their legs with more forward cut and can therefore usually shorten the stirrup and balance themselves better. However, care should be taken with the forward cut, as too much forward cut can quickly restrict the horse's shoulder freedom.
The following forward cut options are available from Prestige:

• A-2: -2cm
• A Standard
• A+2 / A: +2cm
• A+4 / AA: +4cm
• A+6 / AAA: +6cm

Saddle Flap Length
The length of the saddle flap describes the downward length of the saddle flap. The length of the saddle flap should also correlate with the rider's height.

• XS -5cm
• S -2.5m
• M 0 (standard)
• L +2.5cm
• XL +5cm
• XXL +7cm

As far as jumping saddles are concerned, these will also have a little more forward cut at the front with longer saddle flaps.

Shoulder Free Variant SF
Available in classic padded and latex panels, but only on some models. Special panels, specially developed for more shoulder freedom. Particularly suitable for horses with pronounced shoulders.
