Der Sattel als Schnittstelle zwischen Pferd und Reiter beeinflusst das Bewegungspotenzial des Pferdes und die Fähigkeit des Reiters, diesem harmonisch zu folgen. Unpassende Sättel führen schnell zu Rittigkeitsproblemen, Leistungsschwäche und Rückenschmerzen bei Pferd und Reiter. Wir informieren über die wesentlichen Fakten und messbare Eigenschaften bei Reitsätteln und bringen überliefertes Wissen aus dem Sattlerhandwerk damit in Einklang.
