The quote heard round the new indoor is that the footing is GREAT! So what exactly makes this the perfect surface for vaulting? The vaulters love that it is wonderful for their horses, very supportive with a touch of spring. These are exactly the same qualities that make it great for them as well, hard enough to get a great spring out of for mounts but soft enough to make for safe landings. Mary McCormick said, "This is the same footing that they have in Aachen, I love it. I'm so glad that it is what we're vaulting on here at the Kentucky Vaulting Cup." The Ottosport footing is a special mixture of three types of local sand and a felt textile imported from Germany.
