Expert Posts: 2159 Location: NW. Florida	Does anyone have a ramp that's too steep and the horses sometime slide on them? On a RFD-TV "Back on Track" commercial there is a girl loading a horse and there is a thing the is mounted on the bottom side of the ramp about 10" down from the top of the ramp. It actually makes the end of the ramp be about 10" of the ground, so the ramp isn't so steep. Does anyone have an idea of what it's called and where can you find one? Thanks

Our horses haven't slipped but I don't like the angle of the ramp. So we park where we can have a lower angle for them if possible. I really worry if it's wet. I'm not sure what the product is you're talking about, but I'd love to hear more!!
