"THE HORSE COMES FIRST"
The importance of a good saddle fit with adequate clearance. The green line represents the strongest part of the horses back and the yellow line is the top of the horses ribs. I also mark down two white lines. The 1st white line is behind the shoulder blade, and the 2nd white line is representing the last rib. I find that marking the horse like this helps both the owner and the saddle fitter to visualize what we are working with.
Allowing the saddle to sit on the strongest muscle and not pinching the spinal column through the channel is vital for the horses comfort and safety. As well as not having a saddle so far up that it restricts shoulder rotation, or so far back it is passed the last rib and putting pressure on weak pressure points.
Saddle clearance is of equal concern, being able to see straight through the channel is ideal. Any pressure atop the spine can cause severe damage and discomfort.

There will be a follow up video to see the saddle placement get perfectly seated on the top green line.
