Water-Dependent Footing Blends

High-performance blends designed for moisture-managed arenas.

Shock absorption and predictable traction for enhanced performance and safety.

Premium silica sand and specialized geo-textile fibers

Designed for both indoor and outdoor arenas, FootingFirst® water-dependent footing requires hydration to provide optimal cushion, traction, and stability. Our water-dependent footing blends are delivered premixed to ensure consistent performance across the entire arena.

“FootingFirst® was our choice for home here, because we’ve been competing on it. Good for performance but it’s also very good for everyday work. You want something that has the elasticity but that also has a good cushion. We are really happy with it and we recommend it.”

– Rodrigo Pessoa, Artemis Equestrian Farms

Superior Riding Surface (SRS)

High-performance footing for heavy traffic arenas

Premixed with premium ingredients, SRS delivers exceptional traction, stability, and cushioning for the demands of competitive horse shows, yet can be adjusted to create a softer surface for lighter-use applications. SRS performs exceptionally well in both indoor and outdoor settings.
