Rodrigo Pessoa's thoughts on The RP Ultimate:
"For years I have been riding in a Pessoa saddle that was adapted to my needs. The saddle was quite minimal with a narrower seat, special knee pads that eliminate the knee roll and with changes to the tree that provided me with extremely close contact. I like an extremely close contact saddle with the narrowest twist and seat.

I created the RP Special because I wanted something with even more contact and a more-advanced level of finesse, grace and control. The RP Ultimate is technologically advanced but of simple design. The new structure optimizes the horse’s performance by minimizing the stress that an average saddle imposes.

This saddle is made from Sedgwick’s finest leathers and it is built for professional use. While the leather does not have that instant soft and mushy feeling found on some saddles, there is a reason for this -- durability. The most important aspect for me is that the leather will stand up to the use a professional gives it.

All Pessoa saddles are comfortable to ride in from Day One, but give your RP Ultimate Pessoa saddle a little break-in period and you will find that it becomes butter soft -- without losing its ultra-durability and good long-life.”
