Hello,
Gosh I haven't been in here for ages! I hope everyone is well.
We are currently building an arena. The biggest I could go in the spot chosen as most suitable grade and land wise is 25 meters by 40 meters.
I know I can't set up a course in a 25x40 arena but I am hoping the extra width will mean I can set up a couple of jumps at any rate.
My question is 1. Should I fence it? Or leave it an open arena with just white boards instead?
2. Does anyone have any pictures of 20 x 40 schools or 25 x 40 or any of the smaller sized schools with them riding in it? Especially jumping. A visual would help me.
3. Any good exercises for a small space? I am comfortable with that I should be able to set up 2 jumps on a figure 8.. any other ideas?
It's exciting and nerve wracking building an arena! I heard to go as big as you can but this is as big as I can go. We only have 5 acres.
Thanks .
