>>831453>Ever broken ribs before?Nope, When i played rugby, we had a man on our team that played a match only 3 weeks after he broke one or two ribs. They were really tender but he managed to play two matches like that until they were fully healed. I fractured one of my vertebraes during that season as well and I couldn't do anything physical for 2 weeks, and another 2 before full contact.
My current barn has a policy set at 2'6", It's not really setup for this sort of thing but my instructor told me they can provide basic hunter/jumper lessons at the same rate as my ordinary english lessons (4 for $150, 1on1 private hour long)
I figure that i'll just stick around there until i've maxed out at what I can learn, then off to another barn.
I've decided to get a vest, I'll most likely get a cheap $50 chinese knock off to hold me over for a few months until I progress and i'll have more money for the real deal down the line.
