The pad is extremely light compared to a traditional pad, but in the same way it guarantees a dual purpose, both anti-slip and shock-absorbing. A great strength is to avoid any unwanted movement of the saddle in any direction: forward, back and sideways. Furthermore, the Gel is able to compensate for the small imperfections of the horse's back, making it suitable also for the backs that are a bit more \"rounded\". The pad can also be cut with a pair of scissors to be adapted to even the smallest saddles. The Acavallo® Classic Gel is hypoallergenic, non-toxic and does not react negatively in contact with the skin, characteristics that allow the pad to be used directly in contact with it. The Gel can also be cut and then adapted, if necessary, to each type of saddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; display: block; line-height: 27px\"\u003eAcavallo® Gel Features:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cul style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0; list-style-type: disc\"\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eShock absorbing\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eStabilize the saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eRelieve pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eClose contact\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eDoes not alter the balance of the saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eLight weight\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eNon toxic\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eSafe for use on skin\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eExtreme elasticity\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eEasy care\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; display: block; line-height: 27px\"\u003eInfo \u0026amp; care:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cul style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0; list-style-type: disc\"\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eCan be machine washed (30 °C) or by hand in a bucket of water with little detergent\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eDo not use harsh detergents\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eDo not tumble dry\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eDo not expose to direct heat or strong sunlight\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\t\u003cli\u003eAllow to dry naturally\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; display: block; line-height: 27px\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\r\n","brand":"ACAVALLO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46951400931618,"sku":"AC099","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/2269\/8274\/files\/35519_WhatsApp-Image-2026-07-06-at-145108.jpg?v=1783342564"},{"product_id":"acavallo-gel-pad-with-back-riser","title":"Acavallo gel pad with back riser","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Gel Pad \u0026amp; Back Riser is the product you are looking for if your need is to balance the saddle in order to allow a correct position for the rider.
