SUNRIDE saddle pad for horses – shock absorbing pad for pressure relief and back protection under the saddle

Cloud One Saddle Pad, 3D Zone Technology for Noticeable Back Relief

Technology for the horse’s back

Cloud One Saddle Pad with 3D Zone Damping

How modern damping technology reduces pressure peaks, distributes energy in a controlled way and specifically relieves the horse’s back in dressage and jumping.

Quick overview

The Cloud One saddle pad supports exactly where even a well-fitted saddle reaches its limits: pressure peaks, movement, impact load and changing musculature.

Important

A saddle pad does not replace a properly fitted saddle. It complements it by helping to improve pressure distribution, shock absorption and stability.

For dressage & jumping

Two shapes, one technology: targeted back relief for different riding disciplines.

3D Zone Damping Technology

Three layers. Three tasks. One goal: more relief.

1

Defender Zone

High-density memory foam reflects pressure peaks and distributes them evenly. This zone acts as the first protective layer between saddle and horse’s back.

2

Power Balancer Zone

Neoprene absorbs impacts and excess energy. This specifically reduces pressure and vibrations during intensive movement.

3

Aligner Zone

Medium-density memory foam adapts to the horse’s anatomy and supports an even load on the back muscles.

For more well-being. For more performance. For true connection.

Why our saddle pad does more than just cushion

When riding, pressure, movement and energy are constantly created. The saddle does not lie statically on the horse’s back, but reacts to the seat, movement, tempo, transitions, turns, take-off, landing and collection. This is exactly where a normal pad can quickly reach its limits.

The Cloud One saddle pad was developed not only to softly absorb these forces, but to distribute, absorb and reflect them in a targeted way. This noticeably relieves the back while keeping the riding feel stable and direct.

Dressage or jumping, same technology, different demands

Cloud One Dressage

Ideal for horses with sensitive backs, changing musculature and training phases with greater collection, lateral work or a lot of seat work.

Average length:
16 inch: 57 cm
17 inch: 60 cm
18 inch: 63 cm

Cloud One Jumping

Ideal for jumping horses that are exposed to particularly high impact loads during take-off, landing, changes of direction and changes of pace.

Average length:
16 inch: 58 cm
17 inch: 61 cm
18 inch: 64 cm

Did you know?

Saddle pads have been an important aid for riders for centuries. Even in ancient Greece and Rome, cavalry riders used simple fur pads to protect the horse’s back and improve rider comfort. Modern pads go much further today and work specifically with pressure distribution, material technology and air circulation.

For which horses is the Cloud One saddle pad especially useful?

Horses with sensitive backs or changing musculature

Horses that quickly show pressure or tension under the saddle

Training with changing intensity, build-up, conditioning or competition

Dressage work with collection, lateral movements or a lot of seat work

Jumping work with take-off, landing, tempo and direction changes

Riders who want to actively improve pressure distribution, shock absorption and saddle stability

Materials that can do more

Cloud One combines strong materials for long-lasting performance with a health-friendly material selection. Antifungal, antibacterial and odour-inhibiting properties support hygiene and help reduce unpleasant odours caused by sweat and moisture.

The breathable AirMesh backline and inner side promote ideal air circulation. Heat and moisture can be transported away more quickly, reducing heat build-up, sweat accumulation and uncomfortable friction.

At the same time, the saddle pad is pollutant-free and produced in an environmentally conscious way. This means it not only protects the horse’s back, but also supports a more mindful approach to materials and the environment.

Ergonomic, breathable and non-slip

The ergonomic shape follows the natural posture of the horse and supports even pressure distribution along the back. This can reduce the risk of pressure points and uncomfortable friction without restricting freedom of movement.

The silicone print pattern ensures secure grip between saddle and horse’s back. Especially with a lot of movement, dynamics, lateral movements, jumps or changes of pace, the saddle position remains more stable and the riding feel more controlled.

Conclusion

The Cloud One saddle pad is made for riders who do not want to leave their horse’s comfort to chance. The 3D Zone Damping Technology combines pressure distribution, shock absorption, energy reflection, breathability and non-slip grip in a pad that does not replace the saddle, but specifically complements it. For dressage and jumping. For sensitive backs, intensive work and a more stable feeling in every movement.
