Does anyone have a Kuda?

I was hoping the vendor would be at Lexington, but he wasn't so can anyone tell me about them? I was wondering how the leather quality was, comfort, etc...

Steph - my cousin Sue has one and LOVES it. She says it's the first saddle that hasn't made her mare buck. It fits both horse and rider great and is really comfortable.

I bought a Mesace Contrapunto from them and it was very nice. They usually show up at the Piedmont Classic in Asheville.

I don't know about the saddles but the leather quality on the other tack is great. I really like their products

I don't have one but my husband does. He spent at least 75% of the time we were at nationals sitting in them trying them out. When we came home, we brought him a new one home and the more i see his and his comfort as well as his horse, I will be getting myself one too.

PasoMom has one that she rides in. She seems to like it for trail riding.

Thanks everyone. I forgot to ask what models you all have. There seem to be three or so different types: http://www.kudastore.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=KS&Category_Code=01-ShoSad
I was leaning toward the "Gold Cup".

we have 3 Kuda saddles -- the quality is excellent and Mauricio has an engineering background, so he is constantly working to improve the saddles using customer feedback. A number of the top trainers use his saddles because they are well-made and fit the horses well. I'd highly recommend them.

Mom has more of a work saddle. Like I said, nice for trail riding and working young horses.

I don't know if you are into treeless, but I know Mauricio has been selling a lot of them lately.

AND....if you don't like it when he ships it to you ( or it doesn't fit your horse) he will exchange it if you call him, and send it RIGHT BACK in the same condition. He is very easy to work with on that.
