Endurance Riding – Back Protectors and Gel Pads

In endurance riding, every detail of your tack matters. Back protectors – also known as riser pads, front risers, or wither pads – are essential for protecting your horse’s back, improving saddle fit, and absorbing the stresses of long-distance rides. Thanks to their non-slip function, they enhance grip between saddle and back, ensuring maximum stability even on difficult terrain.

Our line of back protectors and gel pads for endurance is designed to offer comfort, shock absorption and stability, both during intense training and in FEI competitions.
