My wife and I recently upgraded to DiveRite Transpacs with travel wings (she from her horrid Zeagle and me from my beloved New Balance). We LOVE the Dive-rites and recommend them without qualification - they are very streamlined, comfortable, and heavy duty. Rent one you're interested in and dive a few times over a weekend - be sure to ask the shop for advice on weighting - we found that we dropped 4 and 6 pounds of lead with our DiveRites. And go to a real shop - one where the owners and sales people dive every week. You may pay a few bucks more, but you're paying for advice on a piece of equipment that should last you a lifetime of safe, enjoyable diving..
