Best Hood that doesn't squeeze my head like a ripe melon

[Marie13]

My hood got lost at the quarry. DRIS didn’t have any of the Waterproof NON-bibbed hoods due to the stupid plague and stock coming in slow.

I just bought a bibbed model and cut the bib off. Works just fine. I don’t like the bib.

Just an update, I ended up going with the Waterproof H1. Was going to go the custom route, but I really wanted to be able to try on and see how it fit. My LDS had the H1...dove with it the other day...man SOOOOO comfy!!!!!! Thanks to everyone for the input!!

A great choice. I am glad it worked out for you. .... Wow this was an old thread. I should have looked at the date.

I have used O'Neill products for years; and their hoods are among my favorites, with never any trimming required -- stretchy and long-lasting. Others, custom hoods, with an edge of neoprene "skin," for full face mask use, come in a close second.

Try a few different makes, in store, to see what suits you, as some others have recommended . . .
