σειραγωγέας
Explanation:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunge_line
A longe line (UK: lunge) is a piece of equipment used while longeing a horse. It is approx. 10 meters/ 30 feet long and is made of nylon, cotton, or Dacron. Cotton is usually preferred over nylon, as nylon can easily burn the trainer's hands. On one end there is a buckle, snap, or chain to attach to a longeing cavesson or bridle. A chain is usually only used on very difficult horses, as it is severe and can spoil the contact with the horse.

The longe line takes the place of the rein aids while longeing. It can be held in a rein hold or a driving hold, and the extra line should always be folded back and forth rather than coiled, as coiled line can tighten and catch the trainer's hand or fingers should the horse take off.
