It occurred to me on the way to the barn last night that there might be another use for the adhesive tape cross I wrote about a couple of posts ago. I tend to slouch a bit when I ride, as well, and my head tips forward when I concentrate.

I think, although I would have to do further testing to be sure, that there is probably a spot on your upper back where a tape cross could let you know if you were letting your head drop forward. It wouldn't actually interfere with anything, but it would provide a reference point--if I go so far forward, I feel the tape tug at my skin.

Of course, you would need an assistant to put the tape on properly, because there's no way your neck would remain in the right spot while you were twisting around to apply the tape. (Not to mention the risk of your hair getting caught.) But I mentioned it to Coach Girl and it might be worth trying. I'll let you know if we do.
