The Alpha by Orca - the most stretchable wetsuit you can buy

The combination of innovative new technologies, such as Yamamoto 0.88 in the arms and Yamamoto 44 in the shoulders and back, makes the new Orca Alpha men's wetsuit the most stretchable on the market.

What's more, the new FT1 technology in the knee panels offers unprecedented freedom of movement.

With the new Alpha wetsuit you'll fly through your longer transitions. This wetsuit boasts a new, shorter reverse zip system which doesn’t limit your stroke, offering unprecedented flexibility. It's therefore the perfect companion for Natural Swimmers from a swimming background who have a naturally good swimming technique, with no significant flaws.

So if this is you, you can now concentrate on what really matters - swimming without limits.

HIGHLIGHTS

0.88-FREE: This technology has been developed with Yamamoto exclusively for Orca, with the aim of creating the most stretchable material available. The thinnest wetsuit on the market, at only 0.5mm thick, combines the best lining with a layer of Titanium to provide better thermal insulation. This revolutionary material is used in the arms and back, enabling a greater stroke length. A step forward in technology.

YAMAMOTO 44: This material, unique to Orca, is the most stretchable Yamamoto wetsuit material and only 1.5mm thick. Using this flexible component enables accommodates a smaller zip than other wetsuits on the market. A smaller zip creates less restriction and at the same time improves the product´s waterproofing.

SPEED: The wetsuit´s SCS coating reduces friction while you are swimming and the HydroLite leg panels, together with the FT1 technology, let you run freely. Never have the transitions been so fast.

NEW ZIP SYSTEM: The new reverse zip prevents the wetsuit from opening during the race. The zip is also smaller and shorter meaning less restriction.

FLEXIBILITY: The combination of Yamamoto 0.88 and Yamamoto 44 panels on the upper body, along with a shorter zip, offers you total movement. The FT1 technology in the knees delivers more lower body mobility to boost your kick.

BUOYANCY: The buoyancy you get in this wetsuit keeps your position raised and horizontal without interfering with your swimming technique. Just the right amount of buoyancy to give the insulation you need.

 

THE TECHNOLOGIES

  • Yamamoto

    YAMAMOTO

    The Yamamoto Corporation is the world’s main supplier of high performance neoprene. Its seal represents quality, technology and innovation.

  • 0.88 FREE

    0.88 Free technology has been developed together with Yamamoto exclusively for Orca, with the aim of producing the most elastic material available today. The construction of five layers of neoprene, combined with a warm, reflective titanium skin, is the secret to achieving the great thermal insulation of this lightweight material. The thinnest wetsuit on the market at only 0.5 mm thick, it combines the best lining with a layer of titanium to provide better thermal insulation. This revolutionary

  • 44 CELL

    This material, exclusively from Orca, is Yamamoto’s most elastic product used for wetsuits, with a thickness of 1.5mm. The use of this flexible element makes it possible to use a smaller zip than on any other wetsuits you can buy. A smaller zip is less restrictive and helps keep your gear properly water-tight.

  • NANO SCS

    Super Composite Skin (SCS) has become the benchmark for coating the smoothskin neoprene used in triathlon wetsuits, in order to reduce friction and increase speed through the water. Orca uses Yamamoto Corporation’s latest Nano SCS for an even lower drag co-efficient, ensuring the fastest swim possible. The underwater co-efficient of dynamic friction of the Nano SCS is 0.026. This compares with 4.0 for regular neoprene. Less friction = more speed!

  • HYDROLITE

    The HydroLite panels help you get the wetsuit off more easily, for faster transitions. This technology, combined with the SCS coating, helps water slide off your wetsuit, without permeating it, considerably improving your hydrodynamics.

  • INFINITY SKIN

    The inner Infinity Skin lining provides the feeling of absolute freedom. Designed based on a high-elasticity nylon that incorporates bamboo fibres, this technology is applied to the lining of all Orca wetsuits to offer you greater flexibility with each stroke. This cloth maintains body heat longer, reduces body odor and the appearance of bacteria in your wetsuit. It is also made from natural eco-friendly materials to prevent the appearance of skin irritation and care for the environment.

  • FT1

    This new technology, exclusively from Orca, consists of ribbed neoprene. It's used for the lower joints to achieve maximum elasticity during the race. Your transitions have never been so fast.
