I dispute that. It is solely a matter of technique.
One takes the hood from behind the seat with the left hand and brace with the right hand on the left wrist.
It doesn't work with a windstop and a glass rear window.
Seconded.....I have a perspex windstop and ankylosing spondylitis and at 5'7 I am not that tall - I can not do the hood up while sitting in the drivers seat!
