Orca Athlex and Apex - Flow, Flex or Float

Posted by Josh Mantle on 28th Feb 2023

Introducing the Orca Apex and Athlex collection. Implementing their technology in new innovative ways has been Orca’s strategy to build this collection, using more science and their decades of experience to deliver the perfect wetsuit for you. Orca have designed this collection focusing on how the human body naturally interacts with the water.

Athlex - ‘designed for triathletes who want to work on their technique and keep improving every day, while still being able to enjoy the race.’

Apex - ‘This line is designed and developed for triathletes who want the best results and are looking to make every second and stroke count.’

Both Athlex and Apex offer suits in Flex, Flow and Float due to Orca’s understanding that all individuals have different swim styles and budgets.

So what does this mean?

In this collection, Orca have added enhanced elasticity, buoyancy and hydrodynamics to help the swimmer to optimise movement and improve positioning within the water. With sufficient testing and the knowledge of the Orca community preference, they were able to use the best possible materials - Helping triathletes to unleash their true potential!

The Orca Flex range is specifically designed for swimmers without technical deficiencies who can maintain a correct position in the water, horizontal and elevated.

Apex Flex - A swimmer or triathlete who needs/wants as much flexibility and speed as possible

Athlex Flex - Well suited for someone who has some swimming experience and is looking for comfort and flexibility in the water.

The “flow” swimmer makes minor mistakes in their kick technique and therefore require that extra buoyancy in order to assist them in raising the legs to achieve a more effective horizontal posture.

Apex Flow - A triathlete looking to save time and energy in the swim to put them in the best position to aim for the podium.

Athlex Flow - Someone who is looking for the perfect balance between buoyancy, flexibility and technical features. While not spending too much with a budget friendly suit!
