Frequently asked questions

Can I use this hood with both a wetsuit and a drysuit?

Yes. The short collar has been designed to work comfortably with both wetsuit collars and drysuit neck seals.

What are the micro vent holes for?

The vents allow trapped air inside the hood to escape during ascent while minimising water entering the hood.

Is 3 mm warm enough for Melbourne diving?

A 3 mm hood suits many temperate-water dives and milder conditions. Divers completing longer or colder winter dives may prefer a thicker hood depending on their exposure suit and personal cold tolerance.

What is Glideskin?

Glideskin is a smooth neoprene lining that improves comfort, helps reduce flushing and makes the hood easier to put on and remove.

How should this hood fit?

The hood should fit snugly around the head and neck without causing headaches or restricting movement.

How do I care for my neoprene hood?

Rinse thoroughly in fresh water after diving, dry away from direct sunlight and store flat or loosely folded to maximise its lifespan.
