I'm hoping (eventually) to free-dive sumps 2 and 3 in Swildons (and then all the other free-diveable-while-maintaining-a-pulse ones) and I was wondering what thickness of hood to get and what sort of mask to buy.
Should I get a 5mm hood if I'm thinking of doing these things in winter as well as the rest of the year? Or will 2.5mm usually suffice?
How much of my face am I aiming to cover with a mask, eyes and nostrils, just eyes etc?
I have no intention of moving on to cave diving so don't need any equipment that would also fit that purpose.
Ta,
