Five reasons GGT Footing is superior to traditional riding surfaces can be summed up in just 2 words—safety and health.
Imagine the risk reduction of having a stable, consistently even, moisture perfect riding surface for your next equestrian event. It does make a difference to both horse and rider when the surface underneath them is consistently trustworthy, no matter what the weather has recently been.
Here are just 5 of the reasons GGT Footing is superior to a traditional sand base for whatever type of equestrian event you might be planning:
- GGT Footing is cheaper. The long-term costs of placing a simple sand or hard pack dirt surface in your indoor or outdoor arena may at first seem like a simple decision. Cost is everything, right? Wrong—no well thought out business plan looks at just the initial outlay of any project, but the overall 5-10 year plan of building and maintaining as well as liabilities inherent to the business.
- GGT Footing is safer. Every horseman knows that injuries in expensive animals are just to be expected, right? Wrong—some things are not inevitable and injuries caused by a riding surface that is: too hard, too soft or just too unpredictable are preventable, both to horse and rider.
- GGT Footing is adaptable. It makes no difference what type of base you currently have, our experts will choose the correct textile or fiber amendment to make your riding surface a dream come true for your horses and riders.
- GGT Footing is the perfect moisture retention solution to your concrete-hard riding surface. Imagine no more jarred spines for you or your horse.
- GGT Footing greatly reduces surface and air-borne dust particles, which is an important safety concern, especially in indoor arenas in dry climates.
