Attached hood is better in every respect, if you're wearing the hood.For those who use attached hoods, how do you find it affects your head and neck mobility?
Do they come off as easy duckdiving as detached hoods?
They don't really affect mobility, maybe a little resistance while turning your head but it's not like you're gonna turn into the terminator. Good ones don't come off when duckdiving, that'd defeat the whole purpose.For those who use attached hoods, how do you find it affects your head and neck mobility?

attached hood. Most heat is lost through your head, so if it's cold enough to need a hood it's not going up and down. Attached hood means less leaks, less material around my neck ( collar and hood, doubles materials) and more comfort and warmth.Wetsuit: attached hood, yay or nay and why or why not?
That's another concern. One of the reason I couldn't use earplugs was the lack of being able to hear threw off my equilibrium completely. On the other hand, I can't hear through my right ear much anyways.some effect on hearing but that is hood in general. Look at any cold water suit, hood is attached.
If you are built like the guy in the middle, I would even more so recommend a detachable hood:
