The performance consists of an odd number of horse riders, all wearing traditional clothes, who charge along a straight track called Mahrak, at the same speed so as to form a line, and then at the end of the charge fire into the sky using old muskets or muzzle-loading rifles.
The difficulty of the performance is in synchronizing the movement of the horses during acceleration of the charge, and especially in firing the guns simultaneously so that one single shot is heard.
