I like that the zipper makes getting it on a little easier. It fits tight around my face for a good seal. I measured my head to figure out what size I was and the size is a true fit.

I used this hood once and immediately went out and bought another one. The tucking involved in getting the hood in place does not warrant any extra protection that it may provide, in the end you end up untucking it anyway. The zipper bulges in the back and may interfere with your other equipment. Consider the shorter hood with no zipper. The extra ease of getting it over your head is not worth it.

it isnt that easy to self don because of the large gauntlet ... so trying to tuck into a wetsuit comfortably is a challenge ... luckily most of us dive with a buddy who is more than happy to tuck it in ... other than that this is a great hood and the only reason i will stop using it is to dive a drysuit
