The 905 is essentially the same suit Dacor used to sell as the 
Extreme. made in Finland by Polarsafety. It's a polyester rather than 
nylon trilam, which makes it more flexible without giving away much 
durability. Everyone I know with the old Dacor suits loves them, and 
Dive Rite has made a number of improvements on it and expanded the 
range of stock sizes.

You still don't get the range of fit options DUI or other 
semi-customs gives, and it's a shoulder zipper/non-self donning suit 
(which some people prefer, since zipper life is usually longer, and 
replacement easier/cheaper) but you can buy one for half what a DUI 
will cost you. So it really boils down to fit - if you can find one 
that fits you well, it can be a very good buy.


The Transpak? I'll let the others take that one ;-)
