Sensation Ride™ Chinook Saddle - Classic Model

Click Here For Our Chinook Order/Quote Form!

 

The Chinook provides all the wonderful weight distributing features of all our other models, plus a very secure seat, while keeping weight and footprint to a minimum.

The rigging flap on the Chinook keeps the rigging guarded against abrasion. The flap does not offer knee roll support. 

The Chinook come standard with our Wester swell, with the option to upgrade to our Tall Swell or a Swommel (round western swell).

The Chinook comes standard with our Western Cantle that is 4" in height or can be upgraded to the Tall Western Cantle that is 4.5" in height. 

The seat on the Chinook offers a rider a roomy, relatively flat & open cushioned zone, unless the seat is contoured with a twist or pommel bolster. Comes with a smooth seat, but for that added grip, we suggest upgrading to the roughed out full seat. Chinooks are measured using Western Seat Sizing, ranging from 14" to 16", 16.5" is available for an upgrade.

Trail rings located at the rear and sides of the seats create attachment areas for cantle packs or water bottle holders for convenience on the trail. Breastplate rings are standard for attaching an English or Western breastplate and carry handle. Each flap has a lower front non-structural and lower rear non-structural ring as well to help hold your saddle bags down and reduce movement. 

The Chinook is great for the trail or competition.  Comfortable for both horse and rider with many options to customize your saddle to get just that right feel to spend hours under saddle with your equine partner.
