| "Horse & Rider" Magazine praises Wyngz Pads |
The Product: Wyngz Squareback Saddle Pad
The Claim: This is pad lightweight, flexible and allows for close leg contact. It's
designed to provide airflow over your horse's withers and spine for cooling and to
help reduce saddle pressure. The pad's seat is comprised of two foam layers that
features stream and vent holes to help dissipate your horse's sweat. Rough strips on
the pad's topside will provide traction to keep the pad in place on your horse. To clean: wash with soap and a hose and it'll dry in minutes.
The H&R test: Our tester found this pad soft and flexible as claimed. He reported the pad's flexibility allowed for an excellent fit and kept his saddle correctly balanced over his horse's withers and back. In fact, he now prefers this pad over any he has ever used. After a lengthy workout our tester's horse had no hot spots (areas where saddle pressure is so great that heat can't escape and circulation is reduced). The rough strips and mesh keep the saddle in place even when the cinch was re-tightened. Our tester felt he was able to maintain close leg contact. A quick rinse left the pad clean and it was dry within minutes.

| Horse Riders have this to say about RidezCool |
"You know with regular saddle pads you don't always feel like cleaning them off because they take too long to dry ... or it's just not as easy ... but with the Wyngz pad ... it takes just a few seconds. I LOVE IT!"

"The Wyngz RidezCool pad is light-weight, thin and is shock -absorbent. It conforms well to any horse. I've been a Wyngz rider for several years and am amazed at the durability of this pad. I still train on my original pad daily"

"These pads are as tough as the back country desert we ride. All we have to do is hose them off and they are clean and ready for work the next day."

"I had roughly 15 saddle pads in my tack room and there were so many things about each of them that I didn't like. Most were too thick, stiff or bulky and a horror to clean. Now, I have one kind of pad and there's nothing I don't like about it - it's a Wyngz RidezCool pad!
These pads are amazing! They are lightweight, flexible and very comfortable for my horses to wear yet provide the perfect amount of padding for the protection my horses need. I also like the versatility with these pads - I can use it in the training pen and take it to the show pen and change my look and style with the addition of a lightweight Navajo blanket.

They are the most 'breathable' pad I've seen on the market which allows my horses to stay comfortable during any kind of workout. I can literally take a Wyngz pad off of one horse after its workout and it will be dry enough to put immediately onto the next horse.
And, it's a cinch to clean up - both added features which save me time in my program. Because of its lightweight form and unique design, this pad is perfect for maintaining a non-slip, close contact with my horse which is important in my training program.
I am particular about my choice of riding and training gear. I like a specific weight and 'feel' in the pieces I buy which only comes from a high quality product. When it comes to saddle pads, I find everything I'm looking for in the Wyngz pads".

"What a great saddle pad! It's unique hinged design flexes when we move allowing great freedom of motion and protection in all the right places. It wicks away sweat to keep your horse cool and never slips, even when we are working our hardest.

I can say the RidezCool pads were everything you said they were. The biggest challenge in riding 6 to 8 hours nearly everyday for over 2000 miles is taking care of your horses' back. A good pad like the RidezCool is essential. Your pads got us all the way to Canada with no back problems. We appreciate it very much.

Wyngz saddle pad made me feel closer to my horse, I could feel his movements better, something I couldn't do with my wool saddle pad. I also felt we had a better connection. I tested what would happen if I had a loose cinch, it didn't move back at all when I was done with my ride, I even cantered him with it loose. I really enjoy using it. I highly recommend it.

I purchased the English All Purpose pad from your booth at the Arab show this past Thursday evening. I just wanted to drop you a note to tell you how happy I am that I bought it!
Today I took my Arab mare out for a trail ride this afternoon and could feel the difference in her right from the start. Her head didn't come up too high and she just moved out down the road much more enthusiastically.
I've been struggling with her in the past 6 months or so and I was thinking it was a pinched back or something. She was getting very challenging to ride - especially when we would turn back for home. The jigging and high headedness would sometimes get so out of hand that I would have to get off and walk.
Today I rode her all the way back home on a long, loose rein. She was relaxed and responsive the entire round trip. I think she felt better!

Sue and Eva had a nice time attending the Arabian Horse Show at West World late February. While talking with a vendor, Sue learned about the RidezCool saddle pad. Sue tells us she had been thinking her mare, Cindy, was maybe being pinched by her saddle. “Cindy has been acting up BIG TIME out on the trail to the point that I was getting nervous riding her.” Sue decided to give the RidezCool saddle pad a try. She tells us, the “pad has made a world of difference for Cindy….It had exactly the result I hoping for….she’s back to being 100% more relaxed and behaving really well again.” Sue mentioned the pad has good cushioning, a slotted opening along the top to allow heat to escape, ventilation for steam, and stretches with your horses movements too!

I have been using Wyngz pads for about two years now, after first being introduced to them at the Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show. I had a high end endurance saddle I was using on a Fox Trotter that was simply impossible to fit. I had a pad that cost a little over $350 under that particular saddle and it worked, but it still had a little bit of roll and more to the point took forever to try and clean. My main discipline is competitive trail and distance riding, so sweat is a big factor my pads have to deal with. I was skeptical when I was told a closed cell foam pad would keep my horses dry even with holes, but the ease of cleaning was too tempting to resist. So I went home with my first Wyngz pad. I have used and abused that pad, loaned it out to several people and it still looks new. More to the point, my saddles DO NOT roll, and my horses backs are significantly cooler with a super even sweat line. I have used these pads under everything from endurance saddles to roping saddles. From Arabs to gaited horses to quarter horses and the result is the same. Happy horses, and happy me because I have a truly clean pad that does not compress under the weight of the saddle. Memory foam flattens out and is useless, gel displaces and creates an even greater amount of pressure, and all of them are heavy and hard to clean. I have yet to find a flaw with the design, nor have the people who borrowed it. And the price is very affordable, the old saying you get what you pay for is true, and the abuse my pads have seen isn't evident by their appearance. Plus the pads are still as functional as the day I bought them. As fabulous as the pads are, the customer service is there to match. They are local to me in Arizona, and every question has been answered promptly and they deliver the pads to me to boot! Thank you Wyngz!!!!

Hi, Ralph-
Just wanted to touch base with you after Cowboy Christmas, where I bought a dressage pad from you. I finally got to move my horse to an indoor arena, where I am happily riding again. Consequently, I have been able to try out the Wyngz pad on a regular basis and my horse is so happy with it! I feel the difference in the ride, too. Horses are supposed to go round so that they carry you on their muscle, rather than their spine and this pad gives the same feel, but more of it- maybe it makes us feel round to the horse, in return! My horse LOVES it.

The Wyngz RidezCool Pads are an extremely useful tool for a daily schedule of sweaty horses. The time I used to spend on care, maintenance and replacement of my training pads can now go into working with my horses. No other pad cleans as well, or holds up to hard use as well as the Wyngz pads. I would not use any other pad.
