Product Information

The Gel-Tek Slimline Half Pad is an ultra-thin gel pad for under the saddle, developed to support pressure distribution, stability, and comfort without unnecessarily affecting the saddle's fit. With a shock-absorbing gel layer of only 3 mm, the half pad remains discreet and light under the saddle.

About this gel pad

The 3 mm thick gel construction helps to evenly distribute weight over the contact area. At the same time, the material has shock-absorbing properties. This makes the Gel-Tek Slimline Half Pad interesting for riders who want extra cushioning under the saddle, but want to add as little extra volume as possible between the horse and the saddle.

Another important advantage is its anti-slip effect. The gel helps to limit movement and shifting of the saddle, so that the saddle remains more stably positioned during riding. Due to its very thin profile, this happens without unnecessarily altering the saddle fit, as a significantly thicker pad might do.

Heat development was also considered in the design. The breathable construction helps to reduce heat build-up under the saddle. This is particularly relevant during longer or more intensive training sessions where heat can accumulate under the saddle.

Thanks to its lightweight and slim design, the Gel-Tek Slimline Half Pad is suitable for various disciplines and for daily training. You can use it when you want to add extra shock absorption and stability to a correctly fitting saddle, without using a thick correction pad.

It is important to note that this half pad is not intended to correct a poorly fitting saddle. If the saddle fit needs to be adjusted, a specially designed correction pad or a professional saddle check is a better choice.

Use the Gel-Tek Slimline Half Pad under a properly fitting saddlewhen you want extra shock absorption, pressure distribution, and anti-slip action without adding a thick layer.

With a profile of only 3 mm, this version is particularly interesting when you consciously want to add as little extra volume under the saddle as possible. If, on the other hand, you need a pad to correct the balance or fit of the saddle, choose a correction pad designed for that purpose.

Who is it for?

For riders who want extra cushioning and stability under a correctly fitting saddle with as little added bulk as possible.

When to use it?

During training and other rides where pressure distribution, shock absorption, and a more stable saddle position are desired.

In which disciplines?

The half pad is not tied to one specific discipline and can be used whenever its shape and size are suitable for the chosen saddle combination.

When is an alternative better?

When the fit or balance of the saddle needs to be corrected, a specific correction pad is more suitable. A half pad does not replace a correctly fitting saddle.

Place the Gel-Tek Slimline Half Pad directly under the saddle and check that it is positioned correctly and symmetrically. Ensure there are no creases and recheck its position after girthing. Use the pad in combination with a correctly fitting saddle and regularly check that everything remains stable during riding.
