Our Story
How It All Started
In 1998, John Dienhart identified a need for arena equipment that could deliver the right mix of cushioning and leveling keeping footing in prime condition.
Building on a Shared Vision
John partnered with Dean Hendrickson, who shared his commitment to quality. When John retired, Dean took over, upholding the West Coast Footings tradition of providing professional, high-quality arena surfaces.
Dean’s Direct Approach
Dean, affectionately called Tractor Dean, remains hands-on with every project, ensuring every surface is safe and every arena meets the West Coast Footings benchmark.
Decades of Trust
For more than 25 years, West Coast Footings has been the go-to for equestrian facilities across the West Coast, recognized for experience, innovation, and a focus on safer, durable arenas.

Tractor Dean: The Man, The Myth, The Machine
Around here, “Tractor Dean” isn’t just a nickname it’s a promise. If you see the tractor rolling, you know Dean is behind the wheel, fine-tuning every pass until your footing is just right.
He’s part craftsman, part perfectionist, and maybe part tractor, too. With more than 25 years of experience, Dean has a knack for turning plain old dirt into performance-ready footing that horses and riders love.
As our clients like to put it: “If Tractor Dean was on the job, you know it’s done right.”
