Product Details

Kelly Kaminski Swift Flex2 Barrel Racer 1522

This Kelly Kaminski Flex2 belongs to the Big Dreams line of barrel saddles. Swift was built for speed by minimizing the skirt length and only leaving the essentials of only 21 pounds.
Built on Circle Y's Flex2 tree technology, the Swift offers freedom of movement for your horse and includes the Neo-Shock skirt for shock absorption and conformation to your horse's back.
The Swift also offers the new SRS seating that has a unique textured surface-like a football giving you more of a "stick" in the seat. Very simple with classic floral and border tooling.

Calculated Seat Size:

Things to Consider
- Tucker adds 1/2inch to their seat sizes (due to thick seat padding)
16.5 Tucker = 16 normally
- Barrel riders usually take 1 less on the seat size
16 Trail Rider = 15 Barrel Rider
- Ranch (slick seats) usually ride smaller (1/2inch seat size) so they dont slide around
16 is for most men, 15 for most women
- Trail Saddles with High Cantles (5) make the seat sizes feel smaller
Trail Saddle with 5 cantle will feel smaller in the seat than one with a 3.5 cantle
- English Saddles dont convert exactly but often are 2 bigger
18 English = 16 Western
- Riders with inseams under 30 or 5 tall and under often need custom cut fenders
Tall riders with long legs but lighter weight may need custom cut fenders as well

Checking the Fit
- General Guideline is about 3 fingers between your thigh and the swell.
