Forward-Flap Specific ShapeOur jumping pads are cut to match the forward flap of jumping saddles, ensuring full coverage without interfering with your leg or the saddle's knee rolls. This means a cleaner look and better protection under the areas that take the most pressure.
Impact Absorption for FencesJumping places significant demand on your horse's back, and our pads feature dense quilting and shock-absorbing cores that reduce concussion on landing. This helps protect your horse's back health over a season of jumping.
Competition-Ready StyleOur jumping pads include smart designs with subtle piping and clean lines that look professional in the show ring. Pair them with your jumping saddle and bridle for a polished competition presentation.
Fast Australian ShippingEvery jumping saddle pad ships from our Australian warehouse, so you're ready for your next competition or training session without delay. No international shipping wait times or surprise import costs.
What makes a jumping saddle pad different from a GP pad?
Jumping saddle pads have a forward-cut shape that matches the longer, forward-angled flap of a jumping saddle. This ensures the pad fully covers the saddle flap area. GP pads have a more square shape that suits all-purpose saddles but may not provide full coverage under a jumping flap.
Can I use a jumping saddle pad for dressage?
Jumping pads are not recommended for dressage saddles, which have a much straighter and longer flap. A dedicated dressage pad provides better coverage and a cleaner look. We stock both types, so you can find the right pad for each saddle.
Are your jumping pads suitable for eventing?
Yes, our jumping pads are ideal for eventing and cross-country as well as show jumping. They provide the impact absorption and secure fit needed for the demands of cross-country riding, and many feature moisture-wicking materials for hot competition days.
How do I care for my jumping saddle pad?
Most of our jumping pads are machine washable on a gentle cycle. We recommend washing after every few uses to maintain hygiene and prevent bacteria buildup. Always check the product's care label for specific instructions.
Do you stock jumping pads with wither clearance?
Yes, many of our jumping pads feature a contoured wither cut-out or shaped spine that provides clearance for high-withered horses. This prevents pressure on the wither area and allows the shoulder to move freely under the saddle.
How fast is delivery for jumping saddle pads in Australia?
In-stock items ship within 1–2 business days from our Australian warehouse. Expect 2–4 days for metro areas and 3–7 days for regional locations, with full tracking provided on dispatch.
