What our Riata customers are saying:
“The Riata Rake is an unbelievable piece of equipment! Over the past 35 years I have managed and trained hundreds of horses to National titles. One of the keys to my success is that I am a nut about great footing. Certainly the right material is important, however without a quality implement to work the footing, any arena can become almost worthless in days” “Riata Rake are absolutely the best arena drags I have owned. It conditions, levels, and compacts my footing perfectly and easily. In fact, the Riata Rake is so versatile it is the only implement I used to lay down and condition the material in my present arena from the inception” |

RiataRake II Trailed Implement
"I am extremely pleased with the RiataRake II Drag I purchased for my equestrian ring. We use the ring for English pleasure riding and dressage. The ring is constructed of a two inch sand footing over a 10" layer of compacted stone dust. The drag does an excellent job of leveling the footing and getting rid of the "racetrack" depression around the rail. The dragging pattern on the web site is the best way to condition the ring. After dragging, the footing is level, fluffy and uniform. It also is easy to hook up to my tractor. I use a 2" ball hitch attached to the tractor's drawbar. It is a great product"Mike Kanzer Landenberg, PA

"The Riata Rake was the right choice for us. The arena is perfect every time we drag. We are very pleased and highly recommend the Riata Rake"

"I have recently bought a Riata Rake II, and have to say that it is the best pull behind drag that I have seen. It just does a fabulous job! After using the Riata Rake just a few times the mounds where gone and my ring was much more level. But the amazing part is that it actually broke up all the hard spots and created a consistent depth in my footing. Along with the great job that the rake does, it is also extremely easy to operate.
The customer service that I received was incredible. As a consumer, I can not remember being treated so well. Bob Powell, my sales guy, was extremely helpful, and knowledgeable. I mean this really is really just a great company, that produces a top of the line drag, and to me it was worth every penny. I pull mine with a two wheel drive 300 cc Quad. It is as close to having a tractor implement as you can get"

"as the director of a collegiate riding program I have been searching for the right equipment to maintain the footing in our riding rings. Within a few days of use, our new RiataRake has leveled our footing and our arenas look professionally groomed. Because the rake is so easy to hitch to the tractor and operate, we are finding that it takes less time to get amazing results."
