Are hurdle saddles the same as the dressage saddles?
Barrelspolesgoattyin
No. Hurdle saddles or jumping saddles have knee rolls and a deeper seat which helps to hold the rider into the saddle. Dressage saddles are flatter and provide closer contact with the horse through the leg area. The seat is does not have the shape a jumping saddle has. It doesn't cradle the rider like a jumping saddle.

no!! western/stock saddles are so much easier than dressage saddles. as soon as u r in a westerns saddle, you will never go back to dressage. and theyre practically impossible to fall out of. but it is possible lol definetly not! western saddles are so much more comfortable than a dressage saddle. it is harder to fall out of, but when you do, falling forward and to the side really hurts your inner thigh, sometimes not able to get back on. ;)

What is the difference between a hunt saddle and a dressage saddle?
There's no such thing as a show saddle, unless you mean a saddle you use exclusively for shows. A dressage saddle has a very deep seat to help the rider sit and a long, straight saddle flap to accommodate the longer leg position. The girth straps are also quite long so that the short dressage girth does not hinder the leg laying flat. Typically the saddles used in hunter/jumper shows are of medium depth with a more forward cut flap.
