Unless you can find a US based distributor willing to work on "fit", I wouldn't even touch this....  But that said, I've never even heard of this saddle/maker until today.

OK, Amazon has a Wintec Pro Hart Endurance with only 5 reviews but all good. Saddle apparently very adjustable altho i am not crazy about it as it looks like lack of security for my "Twirly-gig Speedy. It says "endurance" but i cannot ascertain if it can support the 5/8 crossfire rigging i need for him. I thought endurance saddles generally csme with 5/8 rigging. Anyone familiar with this saddle? Security for spooky twirly horse? Rigging?

Looks like it will use an "English" style girth, so if you're needing an "enduro" or X style girthing this saddle isn't going to allow for that.

Thanks. Reviews were so good, thought i'd give it a try since Amqzon has qnpretty good return policy. This was based on ggetting a wintec elastic girtb to go with it that seemed to satisfy many horses with girthing issues. Had it and all the necessary toots and whistles to go with it when Amazon said they were out of girths. Began an extensive search. No one has it. Best chance is a shipment coming to another saddle shop in 6 weeks. By then chance to return saddle, other items no.doubt would expire so wound up canceling it all. I don't think i will ever find an answer and i don't want to ride him until i can solve.galling issue. Fed up and frustrated.

Just my opinion, but I'd have one made from either Crestridge Saddlery or Allegheny Mrn. Fit, girth etc solved
