Your lunge pen deserves the same attention as your arena 🐴
It’s easy to focus on maintaining a full-size arena and overlook the surface of a lunge pen, but horses can place significant, repetitive loading on the same areas when working on a circle.
Over time, this can lead to uneven footing, displaced surface material and areas of deeper or firmer ground, all of which can affect how a horse moves and works.
Regular levelling helps to redistribute the surface, maintain a more consistent depth and keep the footing in better condition for the horses using it.
Regular levelling of the lunge pen is an important aspect of yard maintenance at 🚜 From young prospects to high-level showjumpers, the surface footing is a top priority for the horses using it.
We worked with Joe to create a custom-sized ArenaMate® Type 3 RFB Leveller, specifically designed to fit through the narrow gateway entrance to his lunge pen.
As no two lunge pens are the same, taking accurate measurements is an important first step when choosing the right leveller for your facility, ensuring it fits comfortably through access points while providing the coverage and functionality you need.
