What kinds of hoods are you guys wearing that you can do this? What is your procedure for doning your mask under the hood? The heavy neoprene hoods that I wear for cold water fit very snug and don't have a lot of stretch. I don't think I could pull it down far enough to get my mask on underneath. Even with the back unzipped. I tried it once and figured it was a useless exercise and something that would only work with thin warm water hoods.
