Well I finally got a new trailer! It’s a Hawk 2H BP with the Rumber flooring. So far the flooring is great – good traction, horses like it. It’s slightly more difficult to sweep, but it can be hosed.
A friend of mine is now insisting that I need to get regular rubber mats to put over the Rumber, because it gets slippery when it’s wet. I do know that urine doesn’t drip through it, so I use some shavings too. Part of the reason I got Rumber in the first place is that I have bad shoulders and cannot lift rubber trailer mats; I have to have someone help me.
Right? Wrong? What are your opinions on Rumber flooring?
By the way – I am very pleased with this Hawk trailer! It cost a little more than I wanted to pay but it’s roomy and light-filled and very easy to hook up. Horses so far are quite relaxed in it.
