I normally ride (and jump) in a dressage saddle. I'd like to jump more, so thought a GP saddle would be better so I borrowed a saddle. As soon as I rode I had no balance and my lower leg felt totally unsupported. I was fine before when I rode in a gp before I started riding dressage. Is it my balance/riding position? Have I got to get used to a gp again? is it just the type of saddle? (an old type deep-seat which seems to have forward stirrup bars) Or should I just continue in my dressage?
