Not all was lost from the experimentation with the Contour. Similar technology has successfully been adopted in the Wintec Kids Saddle which is extremely popular world wide.
As the saddle is much smaller and lighter its durability is significantly higher. Flexible in nature it moulds to a horse's shape and provides young children a very safe, comfortable seat to learn to ride in. Unfortunately the Kids saddle remains very expensive to produce and is very difficult to get to the market at a low price.
Due to the high quality and performance of the saddle and its importance in teaching young riders how to ride Bates continue to produce the saddle regardless of the cost.
