Being Ahead with Your Rope
Breakaway Fundamentals

2m 17s
In the breakaway roping, the rope needs to pop off the saddle horn FAST. If we get caught riding too close to the calf, the time doesn't end as quickly. Over-riding a free horse is a common problem in breakaway roping, causing a roper to lose focus on their swing and using their rope. Staying ahead with your rope can help a free horse learn to stop and keep you swinging to win.
