Abstract

A cinch for securing a saddle to a horse. The cinch utilizes a generally rigid "U-shaped" rib support member composed of a stiff polymer in combination with padding such as neoprene, filler material, and/or leather covering the rib, and a means of attaching the cinch to a saddle. The cinch is designed to give added comfort to the horse, greater safety, stability, and control to the rider.
