State-of-the art surface supplied for huge, all-weather competition arena at David Broome Event Centre, Wales.
After opening on Saturday 6th April 2019, the huge 100m x 72m synthetic all-weather surface, installed by Equestrian Surfaces Ltd, was christened by the competitors of the unaffiliated junior winter league finals, and has since been used by many happy jumpers who have praised the new arena.
The space is big enough to accommodate two good-sized rings, and will even be able to incorporate a third, should it be needed, in busy training periods.
With an increased versatility, along with the additional riding space that has now been afforded by the new arena, the centre was encouraged towards plans to install new facilities and obstacles, including a Derby Bank, Devil’s Dyke and Table, which have all now been completed.
Featuring state-of-the-art technology, the NAF-sponsored Magic All-Weather Arena at the David Broome Event Centre has been constructed with Equestrian Surfaces’ “Ebb & Flow” system in place, which is a computer-controlled system with the ability to affect and maintain the moisture content within the surface, allowing for year-round use even in adverse weather conditions.
It’s a two-way relationship. It is all about giving something back to the riders and it’s nice for people to see we are investing their money wisely. It’s nice for them to be able to come back each year and see something new. It’s always good to see progress.
On top of a high-tech moisture control system sits a surface composed of a unique blend of Redhill sand and environmentally-approved synthetic fibres. The Premier Track+ is a bespoke, high-performance surface which has been designed with stability, support, and practicality in mind, requiring minimal maintenance due to its robust make-up and hardwearing qualities.
