Orca Women’s Apex Float Wetsuit

By offering more buoyancy than any other suit in the range, the Orca Apex Float Wetsuit aims to correct and enhance your posture for peak-hydrodynamic performance. This wetsuit incorporates specific technologies for maximum buoyancy and correction of technique, helping swimmers who need support to maintain a hydrodynamic position in open water. It also incorporates highly elastic materials in the upper body, allowing for unrestricted swim strokes.

Orca’s high-end wetsuit range incorporates Yamamoto 40 technology and Infinity Skin 2 lining to provide maximum freedom of movement to open water swimmers. The lining also incorporates bamboo fibers to provide more flexibility and to reduce odor, preventing the growth of bacteria. The Nano Ice SCS coating increases hydrodynamics, reducing water resistance and increasing speed with each stroke. The combination of all three technologies gives the athlete total freedom of movement in the shoulder area. The material requires 72% less force to stretch.

The Power-fit compressive lining, along with Orca’s high-end Yamamoto 40 technology, provides a perfect fit in the torso area, ensuring that water will not flow through the wetsuit. Nano Ice SCS coating improves hydrodynamics, reducing water resistance and allowing the open water swimmer to reach top speed with each stroke.

Exo-Lift is a sandwich-type construction which combines a neoprene layer, Aerodome technology and a third interior layer of neoprene which is treated specifically to make the Apex Flow wetsuit even more durable, achieving maximum buoyancy and 0% water absorption. A little boost to help you maintain a hydrodynamic position at all times, even when you’re tired.

Although buoyant, this suit retains a superior range of motion to reduce fatigue on long swims, a trait owed to its flexible Yamamoto neoprene construction. Core Lateral Stabiliser technology reduces twisting, further improving support in open water, while the High Elbow Panel design keeps the elbows elevated through your stroke.

The Ultimate seal collar is laser cut and inverses the Velcro fastening to prevent skin abrasion so that you can focus on your performance.
