I know I'm only learning but my riding school insist that you wear one. It's quite comfy and I feel more secure with it on. I suppose I don't know what its really like to not wear one. A bit like not wearing a seatbelt in the car - I would feel awkward without it.

i think at most riding schools you do have to wear one. i used to wear mine all the tome but now i find it restricting and digs in when i fold to jump. i'm no more confident than i was before but i just prefer to not wear it. bad lucy *tuts and slaps own wrist* i really should and am always telling people to wear them but never do myself

BETA reccomends that -due to the material becoming hard over time -you should replace your bp every 7 years so if you have an old one which is not comfortable that may be why.

was in Horse and Hound, think was a letter from the lady in charge of BETA. makes sense I suppose. nothing lasts forever.
if wearing one is hard think how I feel wearing my ruddy body armour at work! it weighs exactly 1 stone!!! still new office job means no more sore backs from BA!!
