Anyone know how well these fit under helmets. Looking at some because I don't like to wear goggles that often and these are kinda my style and its cold as fuck sometimes in MN. Looking at Saga hoods in particular but really any brand would work. Are they a lot warmer than just a balaclava? Are they comfy?

It works for a surf 300ft long hill that has 10ft vert. 3 rails then grab the tow rope and go back up after, not sue why but people surfing around small parks pull it off better. I skied when it was below -30 degrees 2 or 3 days last year so it'd be handy for that. I don't war goggles super often either so this woukd work for that as well

I was looking through the forum to try and find a brand that sells like this hood from Burton:
http://gb.burton.com/default/burton-hampshire-hood/F16-134241.html?cgid=mens-hats-beanies&dwvar_F16-134241_variationColor=13424101005

but I saw someone wearing a cooler brand and can't find it.

Anyway, thanks for this thread, those sleeves and Yoke are much better.

Burton ones look pretty rad, not exactly what I'm looking for, and that price is a little steep for me. Leaning on getting the one from Yoke

Check out Phunkshun outerwear. They carry some dope masks and also some balaclavas (or however you spell it. They are pretty high quality in my mind and they have some that are fleece lined too. I wear mine under my helmet and it works and doesnt fall down my face.

I lived in MN for a couple years and I remember the really cold days. NOT FUN. Worst was when it was -40 but actually -70 with windchill. Crazy man, glad I live in Montana now haha, its cold but not that cold!

Here's some links to their website. They have everything from "single layer tubes" to fleece lined tubes to balaclavas.

Ive also heard good things about a brand called "airhole" As I have not used them before myself I cant vouch for them, but they look cool.

Anyways hope you find what you're looking for bro, have a good season

Yea it is. Two pull tabs on each side. From what I've seen its exactly the same as the wizard hood. None of that two layer bullshit like those other adjustable ones

This the new BS balaclava is super sick. You just need a beanie or helmet over it and its awesome. Most of my friends have it but I'm still rocking the tube.
