Arena Maintenance with Brett Raflowitz

Arena footing is one of the most important aspects of training and competition with horses. Brett Raflowitz of Equestrian Services International explains why taking care of an arena is the same as keeping a vehicle in top shape; proper maintenance is critical to ensure the longevity of investment in the arena and provide the best possible surface for performance and welfare of the horse. Raflowitz describes what all-weather footing is made of and gives the basics of how an arena is constructed, how to perform proper daily maintenance, and why this daily routine pays off in the long run by reducing the amount of effort needed when it’s time for a yearly overhaul. Because different disciplines demand different types of footing, Raflowitz demonstrates how to adjust an arena groomer to produce the desired surface, explains why watering is key to maintaining an arena surface, and outlines the pros and cons of different types of irrigation systems. In conclusion, Raflowitz notes the importance of in-depth yearly maintenance and what’s involved, including laser leveling, tilling, and re-grading the footing.
