───● Meter System ●───
Note: The meter system described below is meant for use within the Riding Arena.

Location of Mid ━ The exact center of the arena, where the A/C Midline and E/B Midline cross.
The Outside Track ━ Ride along the outer dotted lines of the diagram. These are the very outer dots on the E/B long wall, and one dot row away from the outer A/C short wall dots.

The Outside Track ━ Ride along the outer dotted lines of the diagram. These are the very outer dots on the E/B long wall, and one dot row away from the outer A/C short wall dots.
Meter Points ━ There are 4 main dots that extend out from mid towards E/B and A/C in each direction that we reference for meter measurements around center. Each dot represents 5 meters in distance: so the first 4 dots around mid would be your 5 meter points, the second 4 are the 10 meter points, third 4 your 15, and fourth 4 your 20 meter points. You can use these points to create circles, cuts, and shapes. These points can be centered around any dot for circle/shape/cut measurement anywhere in the arena.
Arena Quadrants ━ The arena has 8 quadrants total, running lengthwise from A to C. We ride in an even 8 quadrants which is equal to the width of a 20m circle.

5m Circle ━ A circle that takes up a quarter of the arena, or is 2 quadrants wide. Each circle point is 1 quadrant or dot away from its centre.
15m Circle ━ A circle that takes up three quarters of the arena, or is 6 quadrants wide. Each circle point is 3 quadrants or dots away from its centre.
Quarter Moon ━ Half of a 5m circle, then straight ahead. A half circle that takes up a quarter of the arena.
Full Moon ━ Half of a 20m circle, then straight ahead. A half circle that takes up the full arena.
Half Eight ━ Two interconnected half moons, each in opposite directions, traditionally starting and ending at E/B.
5Meter Eight ━ A small eight using two intersected 5 meter circles.

10m Circle ━ A circle that takes up half of the arena, or is 4 quadrants wide. Each circle point is 2 quadrants or dots away from its centre.
20m Circle ━ A circle that takes up the width of the full arena or is 8 quadrants wide. Each circle point is 4 quadrants or dots away from its centre.
Half Moon ━ Half of a 10m circle, then straight ahead. A half circle that takes up half of the arena.
Quarter Half Eight ━ Two interconnected quarter moons, each in opposite directions.
Eclipse ━ A quarter moon, then a half moon changing direction, then another quarter moon changing direction again, taking up the full width of the arena.
Full Eight ━ A large eight using two intersected 10 meter circles.
