The Hrímnir Master has been developed in close cooperation with riding instructors at Hólar University College (Hólar: Department of Equine Studies) and is very popular among its students. The deeper seat and thigh blocks help the rider attain a correctly aligned position which allows very fine-tuned aids and correct balance for collection. This saddle suits various kinds of riders, but especially those who want to ride their horses in correct balance and posture, and who want to train their horses in dressage exercises and for competition.
The thigh blocks are placed on the outside flap and mainly support the thigh instead of the knee. They offer a steady and strong leg position for all types of riders, but are especially suitable for taller riders. They will adjust to the individual anatomy of the rider which ensures support at the correct area of the thigh.

Þórarinn Eymundsson (world champion in five-gait, multiple Icelandic champion in different disciplines, Level A riding master, riding teacher at Hólar):
"The Master saddle is very horse friendly and helps to improve the rider’s seat. In my opinion, the Master saddle is the leading saddle of its kind. It supports the leg of the rider above the knee and gives the knee and leg freedom of movement. In this way, the saddle improves the seat of the rider without forcing him into a position."
