This custom-made Martin StingRay features a 14-inch inside seat and a 7-inch gullet, making it an exceptional find for riders who demand precision biomechanics and close-contact communication when every tenth of a second counts.
Key Performance Advantages of the Martin StingRay:

– Short Round Skirt Design: The streamlined, lightweight skirt minimizes bulk and guarantees zero interference with the horse’s flanks, optimizing weight distribution across a shorter surface area.
