Product Details

VIP Original using VEteq has been designed to provide the best impact protection for you and your horse. It is uniquely designed to be a high performance saddle pad every day.

Whilst the VIP is not a starting point for SMART saddle users, in cases of rehabilitation, where there is existing issues, the VIP is a useful tool to help alleviate sensitivity.

The VIP is the mid-point interface between the horse and rider. It can be used on the horses back directly or between saddle and saddle cloth; always bobble side toward the horse and flat side to the saddle. The VIP pad has minimal effect on saddle fit, so whilst it might give you marginally more clearance, its low profile, slim-design won't alter the saddle balance.

About the VIP pad:

  • Superior textured structure gives high tensile strength, the key to maintaining shape under extreme and prolonged compression
  • Soft, flexible and seamless with no pressure causing trims moulds to your horses back like a low profile second skin
  • A thin film gullet eliminates pressure on the horse's spine
  • Bobbles increase surface area, alleviating pressure points and evenly distributing weight

VIP is different because the raw material, VEteq©, is so unique. It is not a gel but a viscoelastic polymer, this essentially means it is not rubber based. Rubber based foams compress and once compressed have a high rebound factor and when they rebound they do not absorb shock.They may feel squishy and soft when new but once compressed that is it.
