"When I first bought Rupert he came with a WOW dressage saddle. I wasn’t sure what all the fuss was about till I rode in it!!! Rupert was a sharp , young pony who moved very big for his size. I couldn’t believe how secure I felt in this saddle!!
I bought a jump saddle with wool flocking as that was all I could afford at the time. It became very obvious that he went so much better in his dressage saddle, so I saved up and bought him a WOW jump saddle the following summer.
Rupert sustained a field injury so spent 18 months on rehab. During that time he changed shape regularly, so having a saddle that was so adjustable was amazing!
When my 12 year old decided she wanted to start riding him, we felt she needed a saddle that would fit her as well as she was tiny! We bought a Duskin Saddles Dressage and the improvement in how she rode was incredible!
We use the FreeSpace Girth with all my saddles as I feel that Rupert’s comfort is really important to me."

The GP saddle from another horse was re-fitted by Michelle Lyall to suit Pie - no need for a new saddle! He's moving amazingly well in it. This weekend, Amy, Pie and their saddle plan some XC schooling. Hopefully also in the sunshine! Enjoy your riding this weekend!

Even little people can appreciate the difference a WOW makes! The lovely Grace & Teddy are a perfect example of this!
Caroline Jüngling
My name is Caroline Jüngling and my horse, WP Hardcash Thunderstorm, and I are the European 3-Gait Grand Champion 2022 and German 3-Gait Champion 2023.
Together with Mailie Johnson we found our perfect saddle solution in the WOW Saddle. The past half year has shown an unbelievable upward trend in our training largely due to the perfect and flexible fit of the WOW saddle. Coming from the dressage and showjumping sport in the U.S.A., it was very important for me to find a saddle that enables correct classical training while allowing the big movement of the Tennessee Walking Horse and not hindering my movement in the saddle. The modular system of the WOW saddle gave me the freedom to build the saddle that I needed.
Thank you to the whole WOW Team and especially to Mailie Johnson for the phenomenal saddle and the support we needed! In future I hope to advance in Versatility with WP Hardcash Thunderstorm and will be starting my young horse Dusky’s Glorious Renegade in the Rail classes, although Versatility is my main goal with all of my Tennessee Walking Horses.

Tim Smith
I have just realised that it's nearly 5 years since I first met Nicola Nicholls and bought my first WOW saddle .
Very briefly I got back into riding at the age of 32 ( now 60 ) and before I knew it was a horse owner! After a couple of years I was introduced to Arab racing and then found myself owning an arab. Later I started competing at endurance and before long was participating in race rides.
My trusty partner through all of this was Hamac a French bred arab.
By the time he got to 19, saddle fitting was becoming a problem as hes very short backed and I'm not the smallest rider. Getting someone to help us was not easy and back problems were occurring.
Someone suggested WOW and then I met Nicola.
We had a good chat about what I wanted to do and that was simply to find a suitable saddle for my horse and myself to carry on riding together
Nicola was very keen to help and lent me a saddle to ride in. I actually rode in a graded ride at Euston Park and we completed with a grade1 and no back issues.
After that I bought my first WOW saddle!
In the five years that we have had the saddle Hamac has had NO back issues, no saddle related problems and most importantly for me he is still in full work helping to train younger endurance horses and still competing himself at the shorter distances and getting grade 1s.
I'm very lucky to have a good support team with an excellent vet , Mc timoney specialist and saddler.
Without the saddle and Nicola's regular visits to make sure all is well I am of the opinion that Hamac would not be doing what he is today.
At 25 my little horse still loves going out having fun and I am very grateful that I'm still able to enjoy him after 21 years together!
Thankyou WOW but most importantly thank you Nicola!

Rachel Cordle & Trigger
I have loved your saddles for years and eventually saved up to buy one for my beautiful dressage cob Trigger. I use Alison Braithwaite WOW Saddler and she very kindly asked to sponsor us, so we have a beautiful wow saddle cloth to compete in.
I am completely in love with my WOW saddle and so is Trigger, he really appreciates your soft release girth. As a round cob he has always had to have tight girths, and showed clear signs of discomfort. The soft release girth gives him so much more freedom and he doesn’t bat an eyelid when I girth him up anymore.
We have had great success competing in the new saddle and have already qualified for area festivals, at prelim silver and novice bronze in our first three outings. Our results even got us in Horse and Hound!

WOW AMBASSADORS
TRIED AND TRUSTED BY THE VERY BEST RIDERS
Alex Harrison
"I love the versatility of my WOW saddle. From a riders point of view, the narrow twist really allows me to wrap my leg around the horse and feel close to them without locking me in. Their modular design and adjustability allows me to alter them depending on what my horse's need at different times throughout the season and levels of training. Due to the flexibility of the tree and unique panel design everything feels easy! I’m not having to work against my saddle to get the expression I want, the horses WANT to let go over their back and swing under the saddle."
Alina Diboswki
"My horse was very pleased with the flexibility Flair gave him. His movements were better, he felt more comfortable and if we could ask him [Barbados] I think he would be very pleased that the WOW Saddle was also for him and much more comfortable with me on top."
Katie Magee
"Wow have been a huge help. Wilf feels amazing and the work we've done together getting his saddle right has brought him on another level."
Nicky Hill
"I’m very honoured to ride in WOW saddles and can’t speak highly enough of the difference they have made for my horses, without a doubt we would not have achieved many of our results without them."
Steph Quintrell
"I genuinely believe having a saddle made to measure, with support for me in exactly the right places, that fits Bubba perfectly, and having the ability to adjust the saddle as and when we need to, has played a big part in my journey to not only get back in the saddle, but to get to the point I am at today and to achieve what I have so far."
Siem Budding
"We must shoot through all these different positions, mostly on foreign horses, at different speeds, so we must be very mobile whilst being very stable. And that's why the WOW saddle is perfect."
Caitlin Goss
"I believe that prioritising my horse's comfort is key to building a strong and positive partnership.
Thanks to my WOW™ saddle and Free Space Girth, my horse is happy and never associates his job with any sort of discomfort. It's incredibly pleasing to see him perform at his best, knowing that he's comfortable and content in his tack."

"WOW saddles have literally changed my life."
Richard Davison
“My horses are far to valuable to me in every way, to consider using something as vitally important as a saddle, for any reason other than the horse’s ability to perform to the very best of its’ ability. WOW and Flair are a major step forward in the way we saddle our horses.”
Alex Harrison
"I love the versatility of my WOW saddle. From a riders point of view, the narrow twist really allows me to wrap my leg around the horse and feel close to them without locking me in. Their modular design and adjustability allows me to alter them depending on what my horse's need at different times throughout the season and levels of training. Due to the flexibility of the tree and unique panel design everything feels easy! I’m not having to work against my saddle to get the expression I want, the horses WANT to let go over their back and swing under the saddle."
Alina Diboswki
"My horse was very pleased with the flexibility Flair gave him. His movements were better, he felt more comfortable and if we could ask him [Barbados] I think he would be very pleased that the WOW Saddle was also for him and much more comfortable with me on top."
Katie Magee
"Wow have been a huge help. Wilf feels amazing and the work we've done together getting his saddle right has brought him on another level."
Nicky Hill
