The helmet I mentioned was like the "Pro Plus", you know what I mean? The Air Tech looks actually quite nice! However, this helmet only qualifies Standard:BSEN 1384 and...... "Hats bearing only the EN1384 or BSEN1384 standard will no longer be accepted under BHS hat rules for 2016."

Not much choices left for round head. Trying for fit is another big question. Local tack shops are lack of variety on brands and styles or just don't have the latest ones. If buying online, it needs postage most of time. : (

I know! I really wish I like the look of champion so that I don't need to search for helmets any more.

Yeah, I know some websites do AYR8 in round fit. If there's nothing better choice I'll stick with this one, except from I prefer the look of GR8 that without the ventilation design.

Tried in a local tack shop with Champion and Charles Owen. The Champion fits comfortable, but it made my head look really huge and silly. And I also don't fancy the design of GPA. Sorry for being so picky here. I really like the Charles Owen Wellington Pro and GR8, do they fit with round...

Thank you so so much for you advice! They are really helpful. I'm still working on "inside leg to outside rein". It might need to take more practice to master steering with just the outside rein. I find the horse I ride has a rather stiff left rein, his right rein is alright. He just tries to...

Yes, my lessons are only once a week. Haha, the other instructor in the stable I know is much harsher than this one. I know these instructors are not good enough, even some of their knowledge might be wrong, that is why I'd rather ask for answers here.

"When you ride down the straight sides, look ahead through the end of the wall, wait until you need to begin the turn before you look around it. Read more at http://www.horseandhound.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?741558-Any-tips-on-steering-the-horse-against-the-wall#7etGoRyQtdse0ofI.99" Thank...

Ok, I will try next time, thank you! One more question, when turning, should both reins be the same length?

Thank you for you advice. Currently, this stable is the nearest to where I live now. This instructor is friendly overall except from disappointed about my steering. She showed me by pushing my inside leg, but when I ride, the horse doesn't change even I kick with my inside leg.

Hi, I've been learning riding for about 2 months now, but I'm still struggling with steering. It seems very difficult for me to steer the horse during trotting or cantering against the wall. My instructor just told me to apply pressure on the inside calf, which I tried and obviously didn't work...
