Different snowboarding jackets offer a different variety of hood styles. Some snowboarding jackets will use cinching cords or Velcro so that you can adjust the hood over your head and neck, cinch it up, and keep the snow out. Some hoods can also be removed from jackets when you don’t need to use them. Since you’ll lose a lot of heat through your head area when you are out in the cold, you do want to consider a snowboarding jacket that has a hood you can at least adjust to fit your head and help keep the snow away from that part of your body.
