Orca - Equip Wetsuit - Men's
The Orca Equip Wetsuit offers maximum flexibility without changing your stroke, ideal for Natural Swimmers
Thanks to Yamamoto 39 technology and the most stretchable lining on the market, just the right amount of buoyancy has been provided in the Orca Equip Men's Wetsuit for the swimmer who prefers to feel as natural as possible in the water.
Yet this is achieved without raising the lower body so much that you kick out of the water.
The result is an unrivalled feeling of freedom.
TOP BENEFITS
FLEXIBILITY: The Infinity Skin interior lining is used throughout the wetsuit, providing a feeling of complete freedom. The arms, only 1.5mm thick, give the unprecedented flexibility of a top of the range wetsuit.
BUOYANCY: The buoyancy offered by this wetsuit, thanks to the 39-cell SCS, keeps your position raised and horizontal without affecting your swimming technique. It is perfectly buoyant, maintaining the thermal insulation that you need.
SPEED: The wetsuit's Yamamoto front panel coated with 39-cell SCS reduces friction while you swim. HydroLite panels help make the wetsuit easier to remove so that your transitions are even faster.
COMFORT: The inclusion of these technologies, properly applied, creates a more lightweight feel while you are swimming. Ideal for swimmers who feel less comfortable using a wetsuit.
VERSATILITY: You can choose your new Equip Men's Wetsuit in a range of different colours and designs.
THE TECHNOLOGIES
YAMAMOTO
The Yamamoto Corporation is the world’s foremost supplier of high-performance neoprene. Its seal represents quality, technology and innovation.
39 CELL
Yamamoto 39cell is an extremely flexible neoprene which supports an uninhibited natural swimming motion. 39cell can achieve a 513% elongation rate, meaning this material is sure to move with you. Added benefits of zero water absorption and zero weight variation mean only one thing: more speed. A fine balance between buoyancy and flexibility, 39cell is a durable material which will stand the test of time and distance, representing the best neoprene available in its class.
SUPER COMPOSITE SKIN (SCS)
Super Composite Skin (SCS) is the leading triathlon wetsuit lining as a result of its ability to reduce friction and to provide the best possible hydrodynamics. Orca uses the most innovative version of Nano SCS, developed by the Yamamoto company, to ensure top speed in the water. The friction coefficient in the water of Orca’s Nano SCS is 0.026, as compared to an average of 4.0 for the other wetsuits.
HYDROLITE
The HydroLite panels help the wetsuit come off more easily, for faster transitions. This technology, combined with the SCS coating, helps the 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 every Orca wetsuit to offer you greater flexibility with each stroke. This cloth helps you maintain your body heat longer, yet reduces body odour and the appearance of bacteria in your wetsuit. It is also made from natural eco-friendly materials to prevent skin irritation and care for the environment.

orca equip suit
I chose your site partly because I thought I would get good advice on which suit to order. I am a reasonably natural swimmer and didn't want to float too much in the sea but also use it for lake swims, and after discussion with your rep chose the Orca Equip. The balance is ideal both in sea and fresh water and it performed well for the Derwentwater mile, helping me to win my age category>60.So Five stars for the suit. Negatives are that I ordered express delivery with another suit for a family member. Their suit arrived but mine didn't and I had to phone to find it was wending its way from a warehouse in Spain. It arrived a week late and my request for express delivery refund was not responded to. Come on! Give a better service! Also, no bag? The other orca suit has one. With all the warnings about care for these suits surely a bag is obligatory? So ** only for this aspect of your service.
