Questions & Answers

Amanda A : I have the 7 mm pinnacle hood in a small. I know you can trim the face hole to fit. Where should the good hit your face? How do I know of I need to trim it? What is the best tool to use to trim it?WILLIAM S : Hey Amanda You want reall good protection round your face particular if you are doing winter diving. If your mask skirt in landing on top of your hood around your face, you may want to put your hood on then fix your mask to your face and place the hood edge over the top of your mask. On your descent you need to lift the edge of the hood round your face so that the water & pressure get access to your ear so your can equalize otherwise you do risk a barotrauma. In addition this removes any air under the hood that can make this hood floatly. if you need any more information you can email me offline at billsaunderson@hotmail Have some great safe diving! BillHELEN J : Put your mask on, you can even pop your snorkel in your mouth while you're at it -- if the hood is getting in the way and bugs you, then trim. I just tuck the hood over the edge of my mask seal and I never trimmed.SALLY M : I have one, but I dud not have to trim anywhere, although if you need to, I'd use a very sharp razor blade to trim. You can always trim more,but cannot add it back!JAMES G : Put on your favorite mask, see where it's edges are (you can use a make up pencil) . Then put on your hood and mark any overlap spots and trim. But only if it's really bothering you or moving your mask. Have Fun!
Shopper : i have a dry suit of bare. size s/p i dont know in wich size i need to take the hood?JAMES G : GoodROBERT R : Zeagle/Pinnacle has a size chart on their website or use LeisurePro's size charts.LEONOR D : I'm not sure I can really help as I don't have a dry suit. I am female, x-small and petite. The women's x-small wetsuit was a little too big for me, so I am using a boys x-large 7 mm wetsuit. However, the size small hood fits my head and so that's what I am using.ED R : this is not the right hood for a dry suit. You want one with no bib. If you buy a suit with an attached hood its a guess. I take an x or 2x hood and I'm 5' 11" 190 lbs.HELEN J : Has to do with size of your head which is not related to size of your wetsuit (I wear an XS wetsuit and weigh around 100 lbs). I have a pretty big head (like some baseball caps aren't deep/big enough for me) and I wear a Med/Large for this hood. I have thick, long hair so when it gets wet and messy and in a big ponytail, it all needs to fit comfortably in the hood....
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?SHANE B : Already have one and it's greatJOHN S : Keeps the head warm but will be replacing soon with a hood/vest combo. Neck skirt pulls out during rough water shore entries, but those are in 3-5 surf.

Overall a good product

Very well made, but runs considerably small. Also if you have a prominent jaw line this will likely not fit very comfortably. Vent holes work well, as does the "seal" section around the neck.

Pinnacle 3mm Diving Hood Review - Scuba Gear Reviews

What can I say-Typical Pinnacle quality,well made,good material.Thats why 4 stars.However it does not have a pronounced chin,its cut real funny.If you like your hood ridding on your jaw under your chin,this hood will not dissapoint.I am returning it. Look at the photo and you can see what I mean just looking at it.

way too small

Warm but not bulky and vents prevent constant adjustment and need to readjust mask strap. Purchased the 3mil to start and grabbed this one went it went on sale.

One size larger

Fits snug but not too loose or too tight. Better tight then loose to keep cold water from leaking in. Suggestion to other buyers to go 1x size larger

Pinnacle 5mm Hood

Perfect for my purposes. Fits like a glove; ability to be trimmed works well with a full-face mask.

Nice tight fit and great price

The fit is perfect for me and therefore allows in little water. The quality seems adequate for the price and I'm sure it will prove out.

Nice hood for cold blooded underwater ninja

This is a great hood because it comes down far enough to keep your neck and top of your chest warm. Beats the heck out of a chinstrap that rubs with smaller hoods . I did have to trim around the shoulder some but the stitching is solid and it keeps the warth in.

Runs small

Ordered a small online based on their size chart, but had to go into to store to exchange it. I wound up being a large-extra large (I'm a woman, 5'7", and thought I had a fairly normal-sized head), but found even that to be VERY constricting. The face opening seemed too small generally, it pushed up against the regulator. I wound up going with the Neosport Xspan hood and much preferred it.

It is a pain to get on and take off but it works so well the annoyance is well worth the benefits.

Me and my hoody

This is my first time using a hood and it is not the most fun piece of scuba equipment I have ever purchased. Very restrictive but it does keep one's head warm at depth. I discovered if I leave the apron outside my wetsuit it is a bit more manageable and still provided the warmth I am looking for. I suspect after I get a little more experience the apron will go in my wetsuit but for now I am OK with it outside.

Order larger size

I wear a small wetsuit but have a normal sized head. The large (larger than my measurements) was still too small. Reordered the x-large. I expect it to fit. The quality of the materials is excellent, just a too tight.

Wrong measurements

I measured the widest part of my head and ordered accordingly, when it arrived it was hard to put on, my face super squished and I didn't even last 3 mins before my jaw started to hurt(yeah i know right?) because the hood was putting too much restrain on it, fortunately I will be returning it and ordering a size bigger which I am confident will fit perfectly and looks that it's made from good material that will last a while, after all Pinnacle is a good brand :)

Great value

I swim in a swim spa that is kept at 70deg and every hood that I haave tried out allows TONS of water in the suit. This one seals up better than anything else. I contribuite that to the smooth skin bib. It makes for a lot less cold water being flushed into the suit! Thinking about getting a spare.

Size chart not accurate

I ordered this item twice and both times it was way too small. According to my measurements, I should have taken a medium, which was extremely tight. I ordered the next size up (med/lg) and it was quite tight as well. I also found that the neck wasn't long enough for me so the bib did not tuck into my wetsuit well. All in all, I found it very uncomfortable.

Did better than I expected

I bought this to use in what I expected to be cool water, it turned out to be very cold water, about 45 degrees, but the hood kept me reasonably warm, I was not too cold to finish the dive. The fit was very good and I am very happy with it. To be honest i spend a lot of time out of doors sometimes in very cold temperatures so take that into consideration. It is definately something I would reccomend to a friend.

Good hood - saved my brain from freezing

Water dropped unexpectedly from 74F to 54F overnight due to currents. Luckily I had this hood in the bag as it made a freezing dive tolerable. I did have to trim the area around the mouthpiece just a touch with scissors to give clearance, but otherwise I was happy to have this in the bag.

A great hood

By MICHAEL S.

The best hood I have owned. Spent 2 hours in 60 deg. water removing docks with 50 deg. outside Temp. And 15 knot north Wind No water in and great fit.

Pinnacle's 7mm Hood is constructed to keep a diver's head warm and comfortable while diving in very cold waters. Hood is constructed from 7mm titanium lined neoprene throughout the hood and neck areas, has a large bib that tucks into wetsuit for a better seal and greater warmth, smooth-skin outer surface on bib creates seal against wetsuit, keeping water out, and 3mm face seal with smooth-skin seal. The face seal can be trimmed to any desired size; automatic vents allow air to escape as necessary from the top of the hood while restricting water to re-enter. Hood is equipped with reflective rear pattern for instant recognition and safety. Hood is available in multiple sizes.
