I'm a little rusty on this, but if I remember correctly, you do need to do a HASELL before steep turns, as your pulling g and it could be confirmed an aerobatic manouevre.
After each stall I was taught to do a "HELL" check, omitting A & S as you'd already done these. I got told I'd fail my skill test if I didn't do it this way. I passed, so I guess it's correct?
