How Levitare Works
The Cellular Spring Effect Standard sand packs into a "concrete" state over time. Levitare introduces a proprietary blend of polymerized rubber and elastomers that act as tiny, invisible springs. This maintains the "void space" between sand particles, ensuring your arena stays bouncy and responsive even under heavy daily use.
Performance Without the Drag Unlike traditional additives that require specialized harrows, Levitare integrates seamlessly into your existing surface. You’ll feel a noticeable "push" off the ground and a significant reduction in the muscular fatigue that leads to "shuffled" gaits. It’s professional-grade biomechanics made simple.
Levitare Footing Installation
Integration: DIY-friendly. Distribute 25lb bags in a grid, rake or drag into the top 2-3 inches, and blend with a standard drag.
Maintenance: Requires significantly less water and standard grooming. Compatible with most arena harrows.

While we anticipate a 12-14 year lifespan of Levitare (similar to most sands), the true lifespan of Levitare™, like all arena footings, will be influenced by several key factors:
- Usage Frequency: An arena with high foot traffic might see a quicker wear of its footing compared to one with infrequent use.
- Maintenance Protocols: Upholding regular grooming, ensuring proper moisture levels, and promptly addressing any inconsistencies can prolong the life of the Levitare™ footing.
- Climatic Factors: Elements like temperature shifts, precipitation, and UV exposure can affect the longevity of the footing.
- Equestrian Disciplines Practiced: Footing might degrade faster with high-impact equestrian disciplines as opposed to lighter activities.
- Arena Base Quality: A robust and well-constructed base offers better drainage and stability, enhancing the lifespan of the overlying Levitare™ footing.
Yes, Levitare comes in easy-to-handle 25lb bags. You can store them or install them by hand. No special equipment or additional labor fees are required.
