[PSUBS-MAILIST] Steinke Hood

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Brian,
My neck seal was also super tight, I had to cut small slits to relieve it.  The idea is you run a continuous flow of air through from your hp supply.  You should watch the video on youtube.

 Still some hair
 !       So the idea of those hoods is to either blow
 them up with your lungs BEFORE you put the hood on or to
 charge them with air through the valve.  And then breath
 normally on the way up, or continue to exhale on the way up
 rather.  I can see that they could be helpful on the
 surface in rough seas to help you from gulping some water
 when you first pop up. Brian

 Those eBay units are old and the neck seal has
 hardened. You should be able to get your head in if you
 first stretch the neck seal hard with both hands. Carsten
 took his to a wetsuit maker and had him put in new neoprene
 seals.
 Best,
