It's a step away from Thorowgood's standard, shapelier tree, though it's still a little shapelier than a dedicated flat cob tree like the Arena Cob Dressage, so it suits a horse with some shape through the back rather than a completely flat profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt has a surface-mounted knee block, contoured for security through the leg without feeling restrictive, and a changeable gullet system so the fit can move with your horse over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFit \u0026amp; feel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow Profile conformation (Thorowgood's take on a cob tree), for a horse with lower withers, though still a little shapelier than a dedicated flat cob tree like the Arena Cob Dressage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurface-mounted knee block, contoured for security without restricting the leg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChangeable gullet system (R-Bar), adjustable from Narrow\/Medium to XWide\/XXWide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWool flocked panels, adjustable by a qualified fitter to fine-tune the fit as your horse changes shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCraftsmanship \u0026amp; materials\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeather seat and knee pads combined with synthetic materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis one tends to suit a lower-withered horse or cob type doing flatwork who still has some shape through the back.
