The Pessoa Legacy XP3 is a premium jumping saddle designed specifically for jumping riders who require freedom of movement and close contact with their horse. This saddle features a semi-deep seat that allows riders to change positions and move within their center of gravity, making it ideal for show jumping and cross-country disciplines.

This saddle is particularly well-suited for horses with:
Normal to medium withers - The flexible carbon fiber tree and interchangeable gullet system accommodate well-defined but not overly prominent withers
Average curved back shapes - The AMS panel system works well with horses that have moderate back curves and good muscle covering
Athletic build horses - Designed for sport horses with good conformation and muscle development
Key Benefits
Interchangeable Gullet System (X-CHANGE) - Allows for precise fitting adjustments to accommodate different horses
AMS Synthetic Wool Panels - Softer and kinder to the horse's back, providing superior comfort and pressure distribution

Important Note: Saddle fitting is crucial. While a saddle model may be designed for a specific horse type, it's always recommended to have a professional saddle fitter assess both the horse and rider to ensure the best possible fit.
