Jumping and Eventing saddles are pretty much the same thing but in our experience, we have found showjumpers and eventers tend to want different things from saddles for example eventers tend to prefer mono-flap saddles with slightly bigger knee blocks for extra security whereas showjumpers favour double flap saddles with neat jumping blocks and flat open seat for freedom over fences.
Mono-flap saddles were designed as single flap saddles for ultimate close contact between horse and rider. If you like to really feel close and connected to the horse a mono flap saddle may be one for you.
This is quite a common question when choosing between jumping and dressage saddles. Our answer Is that it is a lot easier to flatwork and dressage in a jumping saddle than it is to jump in a dressage saddle so if in doubt or budget restrictions we would say go for the jump saddle.
This depends entirely on the need of the horse and rider. No one saddle is better than the next the only comparable features are for what the horse and rider’s needs are.
