The videos below are provided that:
the ropers and reiners in America
may learn about the level of western riding
which is being performed across Europe,
... because we offer international recommendations from Western Ropin' & Reinin' champions, clients and experts in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
 As you may be aware, they don't settle for bad, dumb-a**ed footing over there, for international-level championships and events.You may also contact the DQHA (German Quarter Horse Association) for recommendations of our western cowhorse arena products, footings and services » Deutsche Quarter Horse Association e.V. - www.dqha.deIn the videos below ... are two of the premier fEI Reining masters in Europe:
 Ludwig Grischa and Rudi Kronsteiner (reiners in Texas & Oklahoma may be quite familiar with both).Either will provide recommendation of the ProEquus WE40™ ('Western Equitation') systems, for this extremely demanding sport.Not shown below are:
Stephan Waitzhofer, who will also highly recommend the ProEquus WE40™ specifically for reining arenas and similar cowhorse/rodeo-types of riding sports such as cutting, at » IRISHOF Horse Center - www.irishof.deTina Künstner-Mantl, member of the Austrian International Reining Team, but more well known in America and worldwide for the performance of the QH cowhorses she breeds and trains, at » Jac-Point Quarters - www.jac-point.comPlease note that:
Also, HoofGrid™ has been used to provide year-round, rain-proof + mud-free, high-performance arena bases and footing for international reining.
Refer to the HoofGrid™-supported arena that Markus Dünser, the 2004 fEI International Reining Grand Champion, continues to peform, train and practice on, demonstration pictures and letter of recommendation are available at (click) » www.hoofgrid.net/cowhorse_performance_horse_arena_construction.htm
There are two universal axioms about riding and performance:
both are equally important and highly relevant world-wide, whether in Switzerland or the USA or Australia or Germany ...
No Hoof, No Horse!
It's all about the footing!

Rudi Kronsteiner: the following video is provided as an example of the level of reining being performed in Europe, and the quality of the rides, and the skills of the riders (although by now, American reiners are becoming well familiar with Rudi, and with Roseanne Sternberg's Smart Spook from Sterling Ranch ).
KRONSTEINER, RUDI (GER) in the 2008 IRHA Derby - winning score of 236.
Please note: Rudi also won the 2007 fEI Reining International Championship at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds - both the open and restricted divisions - riding Sterling Ranch's Smart Spook.
