Arena Design & Construction, from the bottom up ...
The Arena Footing Layer is what we normally think of as being "the arena."

As you can see, thinking that the sand footing is the entire arena is similar to thinking finishing with a good paint job on a house is all there is to building a house.

This is where  the footing sciences get very complicated, only a handful of experts are able to address all the disciplines and styles, under all the local climates and weather patterns, for all levels of national and international level competitions, regardless of whether the arena is indoors or outdoors, tropical or arctic, come rain or shine or typhoons and hurricanes...

We will design the exact arena footing which meets your requirements and goals and disciplines or usages.
We custom-analyze the various sands available locally (performed by the highest-reputation internationally approved equestrian footing laboratories), and confirm the correct mineral makeup of the sand, the correct size ranges of the sand grains ('korns'), the correct percentages of each size, etc.
We then provide specific, custom-blending instructions for the sands.

For a high-performance, long-lasting arena, this separation layer must also be water-permeable in order to allow all-weather riding year round.
