For the first time in a triathlon wetsuit, the Orca APEX2 utilizes air within the suit’s construction to give you a whole new definition of lift and speed on the water. The world-first AirLite Body Panel features internally crafted air cavities sealed within the neoprene. This extremely buoyant 5mm body panel lifts the wearer into the most natural swimming position. Drag is eliminated; buoyancy, flexibility and natural range of movement increased. Glide on a cushion of air. AirLite is nothing short of revolutionary, offering a 25% increase in buoyancy. Engineered with the latest in material and construction science, product features include:

·          AquaSkin – AquaSkin is an extremely flexible neoprene which supports an uninhibited natural swimming motion. Complete with a new and improved Nano Seal, AquaSkin neoprene extends to a 520% elongation rate, meaning this material is sure to move with you. Added benefits of zero water absorption and zero weight-variation can mean only one thing: more speed 

·          Optiflex – The perfect inner layer, designed to move with the wearer. With full stretch properties and durable construction, OptiFlex is comfortable against the skin for hours of training and competition. Maximum flexibility where you need it most.

·          Superflex Gold – Used as the inner lining throughout the shoulder and arm panels of APEX2, this super flexible, super comfortable lycra material promotes more efficient body motion on the water and faster transitions on land.

·          OmniReach - OmniReach is a durable histretch jersey, ideal for the training and competition demands of triathlon swimming. Comfortable against the skin, OminReach jersey represents the best available in its class.

·          HydraStroke forearm Panel – Superior design with a single-minded purpose. All-new printed silicone pits act as water traps, increasing pulling power in the catch phase of the swim stroke. Embedded in a super stretch water-resistant OptiFlex 2mm jersey, the HydraStroke panel features Aqua Channels that provide through-flow of water, for reduced effort in the reach phase of your stroke.

·          AirLite SCS Body Panel – The dimpled exterior of Orca’s exclusive 5mm AirLite body panel has ventral coverage, from neckline to ankle. Constructed of the world’s most buoyant triathlon-legal neoprene. Unique air cavities on the inner layer translate into a 15% more lightweight material, and a 25% increase in pitch-perfect buoyancy – guaranteed to improve swim times.

·          Duo Smooth Neck 2 – The result of Orca’s commitment to perfection. An all-new 3mm to 1mm double sided AquaSkin panel delivers more comfort and performance than ever before. Guaranteed to reduce water entry and chafing. Sandwich construction SCS neoprene with a laminated stretch material at the outer edge provides a water-tight yet comfortable seal, integrated by a firm GBL stitch. Orca’s Duo-Smooth Neck 2 is a world-first.
