Questions & Answers

Tak T : which one should i use for 45-65 water temp?darrick c : Hello Tak, in that water temp. I would suggest going with the 7mm thickness, unless you run hot then you might be able to get away with the 5mm thickness
robert w : head is 22 neck 18 what size do I need?ROBERT M : After looking at the sizing chart, I measured for my neck for the size. Had a friend who ordered for her head an not her neck on the sizing, put the hood an and pulled it off 2 minutes later feeling choked. Tried it again, same thing.WILLIAM H : i am close in size and i got a large and it fits snug you may want to get an XL beacuse you at a little bigger then me. hope this helps you

B : I have a 17 neck and was ok with the Large but per my review the neoprene on my hood permanently crushed after 22 dives.JEFF I : 80% neoprene 20% nylonTORBJORN L : Neoprene. Thickness works great for dives where temperature is as low as 50DAVID H : Nylon II neoprene. It's comfortable and works well in cold water.CHRIS G : According to the specifications tab, it's made of Nylon ll Neoprene. It's pretty stretchy, but you definitely don't want it to be so tight that it constricts jaw movement, or seals the ears.KEVIN N : Neoprene and it is a great hood I love mine

Delicate neoprene tears easy

Junk. The neoprene and rubber around the face tore the first time I put it on. I don't know if this was just a lemon that the neoprene was so weak I couldn't even slide it on or put a finger under the edge to adjust my hair without it ripping in another spot during the one dive. Brand new 7mm neoprene should not be this delicate.

NeoSport 5/3mm Bibbed Hood

This hood works well to keep water from entering the neck area. It is comfortable and warm 60-70 degree F.

Functional

Functional hood that is easy to take on and off. Provides a great amount it warmth and the head piece fits great. My only complaint is the bib does not fit correctly around my neck - it's a me problem as my neck is thin and I experience this with other bib style hoods as well.

Bad Purchase Decision

I ordered size Large. This hood does not fit well. The design doesn't make sense. I have a small head and this fits so tight, it hurts my head. To make things worse, the chin area doesn't fit well. It wants to keep riding up and affects the regulator in my mouth. I ended up cutting the chin area out so that I can use it long enough to find something that works. I tried to be fair before writing review. After 5 dives, this is my opinion.

Great Hood but I need a 3x

It?s truly a nice hood but I have a large head. It?s a little tight but finding a 3x which is what I really need is difficult. Not taking anything away from this hood, as it appears to be of good quality and it does fit?just a little bit snug.

Almost Perfect

Keeps my head warm! Does not vent as well as I would like - I often need to depress the hood to rid of the trapped bubbles.

Good hood, good price.

I use this for diving in SoCal with a 7mm wetsuit in water temps between 50-60F, and it has served me well. The front face piece is trimmable to suit your own comfort, and the top vent does a good job preventing bubbles. A solid hood choice for the price, though I have only used it for two months (and 7 dives) so far.

GAME CHANGER!

GAME CHANGER! I recently logged the first dive of the 2021 season, in which I used the 3mm hood that came as part of the Henderson package. Water temp as a cool 56f. The two other divers I was with were extremely cold, and complained of headaches. I was in the water while they alternated surface intervals. Total time in the water was approximately 1hr. I was Not cold at all. I could have easily stayed in another hour. This hood is a Game Changer. Only minor complaint is it can be difficult to hear when people are speaking, and you may have water in your ears. LOL.

Not for me

Just not comfy for my big noggin. If you don?t have a big head/large face, this is probably just fine.

Not sized quite correctly.

The first hood choked at the neck. This hood fits but now there is too much material below the neck to stuff under my collar. My head and neck measure as medium, but I couldn?t breathe and felt strangled. This large fits snug but now i have a big ruffle of a bib to contend with.

dropping below the thermocline for more than 10 or so minutes, I suggest a thicker hood.

Does the trick pretty well, however if going deeper into cold water and dropping below the thermocline for more than 10 or so minutes, I suggest a thicker hood.

Disappointment

The deal seems appealing at first... But after going to real surf shops who offer legitimate advice, I quickly learned that this was more of a waste of money then anything else. The suit is stiff, cheap, and unpractical. 7mm suits should offer warmth without sacrificing mobility, 5mm wetsuits from name brands companies are warmer then this suit. I strongly encourage you to spend the extra $50-100 on a reliable suit from billabong, excell, rip curl, or hyperfreak.

warm and toasty

By hafft31

kept my head warm and toasty

Not claustrophobic

By ROBERT B.

Ok, I have a big head (GMS, Giant Melon Syndrome) and I was worried the XL may be too small and claustrophobic. 23 1/2" noggin.

Layering is the key to warmth when we scuba dive. By layering we breathe slower conserve our air supply allowing us to make longer and more enjoyable dives. Smart design pays big dividends in comfort with this multi-thickness hood. The thinner, oversized bib is made to tuck easily into wetsuits forming additional layering for a good seal and an overall anatomical shape that helps eliminate sags and air pockets.

This newly designed hood for comfort and function has a face seal that can be trimmed-to-precisely match your mask skirt seal. Make longer and more comfortable dives. NeoSport 5/3mm Vented Bib Hood, integrated flow vent allows bubbles to escape through the top of the hood without promoting water exchange. All seams are glued and stitched for durability and to limit water exchange. The hood body is made from premium nylon 2 neoprene 5mm material with the bib being 3mm. The Hood is black in color and is available in multiple sizes.
