So, What EXACTLY Is The Big Deal About Footing?

Have you ever had all the pieces in place for a perfect ride your horse feels great, your energy is up—only to have your efforts disturbed by bad footing? Maybe it was too deep and soft, or flooded with puddles …another dangerous one is hard and concussive! You worried for your horse’s soundness and wondered whether you should risk riding in that environment....You made a mental note not to return to that facility  or arena, unless changes were made!


You see, Footing can make or break the success of horse shows and trainers’ arenas and can actually affect the health and performance of your horse!   Our high-quality textile additives and arena grooming equipment have proven successful in several shows and private farms! That is why horse show managers and farm owners looking for the best in footing often turn to GGT-Footing™, a high-quality geotextile material (either pre-blended with sand or blended on site) that provides consistent support, day after day.

Why Do Horse Owners Need GGT (German Geo Textile) Footing?

Ever since people started using riding arenas when working with their horses, they were experimenting with the large variety of materials for the use as footing. In former times pure grass riding places were created, but soon one noticed that by constant riding on the hoof track, the soil consolidated and with rainfalls, it turned to a mud bath. People went searching for alternatives for grass footing and discovered the sand. Over years, sand and arenas with sand – wood mixture were the standard. Some arena builders wanted to build something better and searched for new materials, which they found in plastic chaff. Since the beginning of the 90's the first, new “arena footings were created with geo textile or felt chaffs in Germany. This new footing, which was regarded very critically at first by equestrians, owners of stable and arenas, turned out to be the optimal footing for dressage and jumping in the last 10 years. Footing with felt and fibers proved to be the most successful solution in Germany and internationally.

What Riding Disciplines Benefit From GGT Footing?

So far, the worldwide proved and tested footings with textile aggregates of the dressage and jumping sector have been a no-no for the Western equitation.  It has been argued that the requirements for this equitation discipline vary too much.  Now, GGT-Western will change this.  Tested by Western Riders throughout the country, GGT Western has proven success!
