HORSEBACK MANGANAS
The ability to flank and lasso a mare by the hands to knock her down.
The fate of the Horse Manganas is an extraordinary demonstration of skill and coordination in charrería. In this suerte, a horseman, known as a manganeador, displays exceptional technique in throwing his rope to lasso the front legs of a mare that runs at full speed through the arena, thanks to the joint work of the arriadores.
The key to this luck lies in the perfect synchronization between the manganeador and the arriadores. The arriadores play an essential role in guiding the mare in a precise manner so that the manganeador can execute his cast with maximum efficiency.
The Manganas a Caballo is an impressive spectacle that highlights the rich tradition and mastery of the charrería. Each performance is a tribute to the skill and dedication of the participating charros and arriadores. It is a reminder of the importance of timing and individual mastery in this exciting equestrian discipline.
