Hi all, new to this forum and really just wanted to get some suggestions from you lot out there who may be in the same situation as me.

I have taken over the training for FLT at the current site i am based at now and we are mainly dealing with either casks, IBC, pallets. The previous instructor had set up a course long ago but used casks to outline the training course... The area is a bit awkward due to the ground conditions becoming muddy in the rain and winter seasons.

So i have put my foot down and requested that we move the training and utilise the space of an old carpark that has the proper ground conditions since we dont have any indoor areas to setup in. I am desperate to move away for the cask course design as it just doesn't work. This is where i am really looking for others opinions advice on what you have used to setup course areas in the past in an outdoor location. The ground is concrete and mostly flat but the odd slight slope so the typical barriers i have been familiar with for indoor smooth flat floors may not cut it and weather conditions wont really suite.

Are the 2 metre barriers with short feet on the one side the answer or has someone got any better suggestions?

Would really appreciate any help.

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
