Here's a pic of mine on Bay, not from the same angle but hopefully close enough to see, it's the best one I have. He also has all kinds of pad under him, but, presumably, the right amount for the saddle to fit his back.... the panels on the saddle match the angles of his back and are sitting flatter on him. There's not so much dead air under the saddle.
The cashell cushion I have does not come out so far around the back of the saddle. If I don't get it on just right the edge of my saddle hangs off.
I swear, I'm sick of this, I'm ready to chuck the whole mess.
