Jumbo poll! - Does your Chim have Elephant Ears??
Discussion
No and no leaks even in torrential rain.
I suspect these come in useful if you don't tension the hood properly. My technique is to put the hood up but not lock the stays, tension and velcro down the sides, then pop the stays over centre. This gives added tension to the sides of the hood and I'm convinced prevents any leaks.
I don't even recall my 500 having ears from new. Maybe they fell off during the PDI!

Top tip! I don't have to leave mine outside in the rain anymore, but it I do I'll remember this. OH
