Pessoa Amo Junior Jump Saddle
Competition Performance Designed for Young Riders
The Pessoa Amo Junior Jump Saddle has been specifically developed for ambitious young riders who require the same quality, comfort and performance found in Pessoa's adult competition saddles. Designed for ponies and their riders, the Amo Junior combines premium materials, innovative fitting technology and lightweight construction to create a saddle that inspires confidence from the first fence to the finish line.
Whether you're competing in Pony Club, show jumping, eventing, working hunter classes or training at home, the Amo Junior offers the close-contact feel and rider security needed to perform at your very best.
Premium Comfort and Close Contact
Crafted from luxurious chrome-free pre-oiled calfskin leather, the Pessoa Amo Junior provides exceptional softness, grip and durability. The naturally supple leather allows young riders to develop an independent, balanced position while maintaining close communication with their pony.
The ergonomically designed seat supports a secure jumping position, encouraging confidence over fences without restricting the rider's movement.
Lightweight Carbon Fibre Performance
At the heart of the saddle is the Pessoa Legacy Pony Carbon Fibre Tree, combining outstanding strength with an exceptionally lightweight design. Weighing approximately 4.5 kg, the saddle is easy for young riders to handle while providing excellent stability and balance during training and competition.
The lightweight tree has been specifically designed for pony conformation, helping to distribute the rider's weight evenly while allowing unrestricted shoulder movement and freedom through the back.
Adjustable Fit for Growing Ponies
The Amo Junior incorporates the X-Change® Series 2 Interchangeable Gullet System, allowing a qualified saddle fitter to alter the tree width as your pony develops muscle, matures or changes condition throughout the year. This makes the saddle an excellent long-term investment for ponies whose shape evolves over time.
The AMS (Advanced Moulding System) Synthetic Silicon Wool panels provide consistent cushioning and even pressure distribution across the pony's back. Combined with a generous gullet channel, they promote excellent spinal clearance and contribute to your pony's long-term comfort and performance.
Designed Around the Rider
The Velcro-adjustable knee blocks can be positioned to suit individual leg length and preferred riding style, allowing young riders to achieve personalised support and greater confidence over fences.
Traditional double-flap construction provides a familiar feel and excellent stability, while short Austrian billets, designed specifically for pony saddles, help create a neat and secure girthing arrangement.
To accommodate different rider builds and disciplines, the Pessoa Amo Junior is available with Standard, Forward, Long and Long Forward flap options, ensuring an individual fit and optimum leg position.
Premium Finishing Touches
Finished with elegant tone-on-tone piping and refined detailing throughout, the Pessoa Amo Junior reflects the quality and craftsmanship for which Pessoa Saddles are renowned.

Gullet System
The Pessoa Amo Junior Jump Saddle is fitted with the X-Change® Series 2 Interchangeable Gullet System, allowing the tree width to be professionally adjusted to accommodate a wide range of pony conformations. Each saddle is supplied with a Medium gullet plate as standard, with alternative widths available separately.
Professional Saddle Fitting Recommended
To ensure the highest levels of comfort, performance and longevity, we recommend that every Pessoa saddle is professionally fitted by a qualified saddle fitter. Correct adjustment of the gullet width and overall saddle balance will help achieve the optimum fit for both pony and rider, allowing them to perform together with confidence.
