003712 Vaquera TM
Since time immemorial, the knee has been used to support the horse, Zaldi proposes a new concept, the dream of freeing the knee and that it is the chair that holds you on the horse. How? Through its TM-System or taco muslera.
Horse riding is movement, complex union of physics, masses and dynamic forces. Zaldi, a manufacturer of saddles with more than four generations of experience, has developed a new concept based on the study and application of Newton's laws of movement to horse riding. A great effort of its R&D department (Research, development and innovation) led by the company's director.
José Luis Castellanos Torres, director of Zaldi, tells us: “It is a radical change in the way of riding, Newton's laws are based on Galileo studies. To this to innovate and to say that the earth was round they burned it in the bonfire…, thus we have felt sometimes, while we developed this new concept with saddlers, riders and designers ”comments with laughter.
Zaldi has invested hours of study, applying vector mathematical algorithms, in short, Newton's laws of motion (inertia, dynamics and action / reaction) that, if analyzed in depth, are part of the movements involved in riding.
For this reason, it is not a matter of tastes, aesthetics or other peculiarities, the dynamic forces and the physics that study them, applied to horseback riding give exact parameters that indicate the place to place the TM-System or taco-muslera in the saddle to its perfect operation and maximum use of its virtues by the rider. It is a very personal system and must be adapted to each rider.
TM-System Vaquera saddle. Before you held the saddle, now it is the chair that holds you. It is important to note that he has worked together with experienced riders to develop this new Vaquera TM-System saddle. In the market there have been similar lines in its evolution, but always influencing the knee or seeking to be rigidly embedded without freedom. “With our thigh-block, it is free and the pressure acts on the middle third of the thigh. Before riding for the first time, the rider must adjust it to suit you. Then try it and discover the new sensations to feel a perfect fit while the knees are free. Observe how aids and supports that are carried out with full ease are improved. This system is very useful for movements, exercises or fundamental turns in the development of the Vaquera dressage, of work, the reality of the field or for the harassment and demolition, where to the sum of masses, inertia and dynamic forces of horse and rider, those of the cow are added. Full application of the laws of the movement to riding and that we had never stopped studying until now. The system favors being more relaxed and free of pressure, so we can double the control over the horse, all of which is very beneficial to evolve and improve our riding. There will be a before and after for them, once they have tried it, ”says Castellanos. Full application of the laws of the movement to riding and that we had never stopped studying until now.

6 characteristics 6 to highlight of the Vaquera Tm-System chair.
1- In addition to the incorporation of the TM-System or taco-muslera as standard, which allows us a maximum adjustment and grip without losing the seat, this saddle has 5 more features that will make it stand out from other Vaquera saddle on the market. On the Tm-System, highlight to older people that it is important that the taco is stuck to the thigh, that there is no gap. Always in touch, but without pressure. Once out of the saddle, the rider can begin assembly, with detailed instructions provided by the manufacturer. This new system is optional and Zaldi is implementing it in dressage saddles, general use, gear and Vaquera, although it retains the different variants of knee block. "It could be placed in any saddle, except for the jump, and offers 24 factory positions, that you can expand the user with a punch ”, specifies José Luis Castellanos Torres. In addition, it is possible to adapt it to an already used saddle.
Importantly, in the event of a fall, the rider can leave the saddle without getting caught, just like in other conventional saddles.
2-It has a deep seat with a raised shell that prevents the rider from going backwards in the different movements that the rider can perform in his work, specially designed for vigorous use.
3-manufactured with a high-density fiber reinforcement, high strength and durability (covers 10 year warranty). With minimal weight without punishment for the horse's back.
4-Panels are of an intelligent double, innovation T + T based on studies and experience Zaldi. Just fill 3 layers, 2 outer wool and a large inner layer of smart latex rubber that regains its shape after use. Great comfort and duration.
5-Dressage billets, with a first elastic billet that facilitates the movements and does not diminish the thoracic capacity of the horse. Relieving back pressure. Second billet in "V-System", fix the whole saddle to the horse, avoiding the swing without causing pressure on the back. The old Vaquera webbing held the saddle by a single point forward and unstably, as it danced from back to front inside the saddle. With the application of the dressage webbing, the saddle is held by 3 points (front, middle, back) getting a fixed and complete support.
6- Safety stirrups, includes the system that avoids being left in the event of the fall of the horse.
