I’m getting to the final stages of my build, so I need to do something about the seat. I have a kangaroo hide I intend to use. Almost all bench style seat have ribs stitched into them. I assume this is partly to give grip to the rider. How necessary is this? My leather has marks and scars of the kangaroo’s life that I want to keep and not hide with rib stiching. Do you think I can get away with a seat something like this? I will be riding with a pillon a lot of the time.
