It's called a levelawn or Levelling Lute there's a few places online that sell them.

it's around the 750mm mark I put a shorter thicker handle on it so you can closer to the sand and see whats going on and apply more pressure. I like to take photos from high up it shows the patterns better so generally bounce onto walls sheds fences and van roofs. No h&s lectures please.

There brilliant for topdressing cricket pitches, and levelling before turfing.

I swear i've seen a Surfacing company that run a Volvo ECR88 with a engcon rotator with a lute attachement for levelling pavements prior to compaction.
If I havent, I have first dibs on design rights
