It needs compacted with a compactor

Arena is beautiful! What type of sand did you use and how thick is the sand layer would you say it is?

Thank you for sharing! I'm getting some information to start a system like this on our two-acre parcel.

Thank you so much, this gave me the confidence to give my mare her first of 7 injections. Now I can do it! This was just what I needed! ❤

I hope this might be considered 'better late than never', but this kind of grid system isn't made for hoof-sized pressure (14 to 16 square inches) from directly above. They're more for auto and truck-sized tire rolling pressure from the side and it's also expected to be compacted after filling. A much smaller cell for the gravel would work a lot better. Something like what's called 'permeable pavers'. Amazon has a brand called Vodaland that looks close. They're more rigid and have better shapes for hooves. But nothing will work well without much better drainage.

That turned out awesome

What is the height of your Geo-grid?

I saw this was posted 4 years ago - how is your arena holding up? Looking to do one next year but wanting to get the base started this fall and let it settle at least until late spring/early summer. Hoping by then it will be good and solid and ready for the sand so I can ride in it this time next year! We have clay here which I’m told should set up nice as a base as long as it’s properly prepped.

We use this for the railroad, we dig out all the wet dirt disc it in the sun to dry it all out, put the dirt back in tamped close to grade then put down the fabric and then the cell on top and then refill with with gravel and ballast. All the time sometimes will put a double layer of cell and fabric

Its amazing how a alight tough can have such an impact o a horse. I really enjoyed watching her work with the horse. Obviously very knowledgeable.

We have a mini horse that the vet told us to treat like you just did. How long norm does it take to heal to where their not walking with a gimp?

what type of sand?

i do miss having an indoor and out door arena

This was so helpful!! Thank you!!!!

Was that one inch or 1.5 inches straight in aka 90 degrees?

Thanks for shareing I just did that.

What type of sand did you use?

Thank you so much for showing the process start to finish! I've watched a number of videos that only show the injection part, not drawing up the medication etc, so yours was most helpful to me!

Awesome 🤩 Ty

How much would you say you spent on sand and what kind of sand? Our area is treeless and we have equipment and people to grade it ourselves or very cheaply. We would probably need to bring dirt in but I’m wondering more on the cost of sand. Thanks!

Your videos on this have been extremely helpful. Really appreciate the effort!! What do you do with the material you scrap off each year?

What type of boot would you recommend?

What type of material did you use for the fencing "rails"? It appears to be rubber vs. wood. I'm looking for something like this. Currently, I'm planning to use three rows of 2-inch white poly tape. What do you think? Your video was incredibly helpful, thank you! I just had an area cleared and graded and had planned to put in footing right away, but after watching your video, I'm planning to wait until after winter and it dries out. Just worried about weed growth. How did you keep plants from growing during the year that you waited?

poor junior!

Have tried such stuff in my dog kennels to help with drainage and keep the dogs on a more solid surface. They really do not work and I followed the instructions to the teeth and did not skimp on gravel or materials. Find yourself a qualified sand and stone landscaper and have the proper road base sand mixes put in, the stuff at your local garden center is not what will do the

Great video - thanks!

Thank you. I really appreciate your video because it's hard to find videos on how to preserve Brussels sprout plant leaves. Most of them are about the Brussels sprouts themselves. I just wanted to add a constructive comment if I may. The video is not clear (blurry) and it is dark (I believe it might be because of the light coming from the window behind you). Besides that, it is very informative and detailed. Thanks again 🙂.

Great video!! I’m using first time on my dog and this has been very informative. Thank you.

Thanks for this update! Really good pro and con. I have used this but we used a tamper. That seems to help a lot.

Great video. Can you please make a video to discuss the pros and cons with synthetic liners versus natural fiber?

I love him! so happy he's home

Hi 👋👋 Do you guys have any advise on ground stakes to hold down the cells? IE - type and how many to buy? and place them every cell or every other cell on the parameter? Also did you leave your stakes in after the cells were filled or did you pull them? Many thanks 🙏🏼

Can you give me the trucking co. Name you used

Im doing the same thing, i live in woodland. On my 3rd year, how did you get rud of all the sticks?

Thank you. There are plenty of ideas for preserving the brussel sprouts themselves, but yours is one of the only videos or recipes on how to preserve the leaves. Very much appreciate the video.

Thank you for your video. Learned exactly what I needed and loved your honest and genuine expressions! I will be following you now, you kick ass! =)

How do you keep it weed free without chemicals? We just bought an equestrian property but don’t have horses yet and it looks terrible! 😢

music interferes with your voice

If you don't have patience, then all you need is a roller!

"what you need is a cup of coffee..." You got me RIGHT THERE 😂

You talk too much

So he's okay now with the EPM. Cool!

We just tested my mare for EPM, she had a bit of a limp and head bob off and on, but another thing is her coat used to be so shiny and beautiful and recently went very dull. Her blood test came back negative, but vet wants to treat her anyway due to inflammation building. She looks similar to your horse in the round pen. The one thing I noticed recently is that she would want to take off on me, where before she never would do that. It's as if she wants to get the ride over with. Poor baby, I hope it takes care of her issues.

Amazing and you are so charming ! Great idea to share this !

Hey, i just watch it all through and you can only see the beginning of the video. Though i should let you know!

Love this. Also love the realistic nature of doing it yourself and on a budget.

Excellent, Very informative 😅

Your WhatsApp plz 🌹🥀🌻🌺 I'm excited for join the your horse journey plz are not Plz any work mentioned exactly plz 🌹🥀 with you plz

That is bc the more you add the more Mudd you get. You need drainage .just putting rocks under it is not going to work. I doubt this new way will work. You should not keep horses in such small muddy places. That is another reason for the Mudd. Simply use your grass paddocks. Horses need to be in larger spaces. At least 1 acres per horse.

The part of our barn that had concrete the mice and rats were underneath the concrete and made the concreteCrack. I will never have concrete floors again. I love what you are doing. Hoping to do something like this for our run in sheds.
