Le Lion d’Angers – Mondial du Lion
Switching of the honorary arena from grass into sand and creation of a warmup paddock
After several rain events showing the limits of the grassed surface for the regularity of the tests, it was decided to transform the arena into fiber sand and to equip it with a sub-irrigation system to facilitate maintenance.
A similar paddock has been created nearby.
The Mondial du Lion 2020 took place on these new surfaces : the riders were thrilled and FEI technical delegates had best comments about them.
