Overview

The ultimate in technology has finally revolutionized the equine industry with the CSI Flex Plate System: The flex plate has withstood the test of time and use. CSI test pads are now nearing 15,000 hours of hard riding at the Lower Snake River Cattle Ranch at the base of the Tetons in Wilson, WY. Our pads are also tested at a busy Texas feedlot and by a host of clinicians and professional horsemen from coast to coast. Plus, there are numerous competition and trail riders that absolutely swear by this pad. The unique design of the flex plate will reduce or eliminate common saddle fit issue. Because of the three overlapping layers of a very strong polycarbonate material (10,000 psi tensile strength), it simply will not allow any pressure points to radiate into the horse. This design allows for even distribution of the riders weight, saddle tree pressure and any type of impact, including roping. The flex plate increases the range of motion and the overall comfort for the horse. The flex plate also creates a foundation for the saddle bars to rest on, creating more stability, allowing the rider to feel more secure.

The contour is built into the pad; when it is pulled up into the saddle gullet it will remain in that position during the entire ride. It will not work down and apply pressure across the wither. Because of the foundation that the flex plate creates there will be no pressure applied to the spine. You will usually have even sweat every where except down the spine of the horse. The contour and the vent holes allow for good air flow.

The outer shell is marine grade automotive carpeting backed with felt. The Flex Plate is sewn in between the layers. Available colors are black, light brown, medium brown, dark brown, blue, burgundy and gray. Wear leathers are available in black or brown, The leather weight is 6 ounce. .

A cut out for latigo and off billet help to keep everything under your leg neat and reduces bulk.

Our 100% All Natural Wool Felt inserts are made from a high quality, high density wool and are needled versus pressed during the felting process. This means what touches your horse is never subjected to harsh chemical processes! The removable inserts are offered in different thickness: 1/2 inch for the round backed or over weight horses and our 3/4 inch is the most versatile.

Our small round pad measures 28" down the spine and 29" at the longest point. Our large round pad measures 29 1/2" down the spine and 31" at its longest point. Both pads are 38" around the barrel and 32" around the hip.

I bought my first CSI a few months ago for a barrel horse that we always see dry spots under his saddle. We have tried Impact Gels, 5 Star, Best Ever and even more pads in the quest for the perect pad. Turns out, it is the CSI. After using the CSI, I'm back to buy another one. They are expense but well worth it.

I actually bought 2 of these pads last year after watching the video on youtube.com. I have 3 horses, all built very differently, and this pad fits all of them! I bought both the 3/4 inch and 1/2 inch insert. I mostly use the 3/4 inch but am glad I bought a 1/2 inch foam insert before they were discontinued. The inserts are incredibly easy to clean and seem to hold up very well. The only thing I wasn't 100% happy with was the big price tag but, really, my CSI pads replaced two Impact Gel pads and a Parelli Theraflex pad, so the cost isn't much higher when I add it all up. Plus, my horses seem more comfortable so it's worth it :-)

I have used my round skirt CSI pad for the last 3 1/2 years of almost daily riding. I LOVE it and so does anyone who borrows it to try it out. My husband bought a cut back western to go with his Aussie saddle and loves his also. I have the foam insert but I'm ordering a new felt insert as the foam is starting to fall apart. I guess that's why they stopped offering it.

I really like the flex plates and I have mostly round skirted saddles, so this is the pad I use with them most often. I have one with the foam/felt combo. I think I would actually prefer all felt, but the pad works very well on a variety of horses. I do recommend it, but if your saddle is a close fit to your horse's back, go with the thinner insert so you won't be "perched" up on your horse. But that's true with any pad-go thinner if the saddle doesn't have the room for a really thick pad.
