I have just had rubber shred (strips of rubber not the chips) put on top of my sand and fibre arena to help stop it drying out in the sun and wind and to stop freezing in winter.

My question is what type of leveller can I use to maintain it.

I have at the moment an arena mate which was excellent on the sand or with sand and rubber chips but doesn't work with the rubber shred. So will have to think about selling that and replacing with another type.
 
I have rolled it which helps firm up the base but doesn't do anything to move the rubber around to level out the thicker bits.

Any other suggestions?

Is there any reasonable priced levellers that would help?
 
we use an old metal gate on a rope behind the discovery and whizz round a bit!! arena is sand with recycled rubber bits/strips. It spreads them out really well.
