The Apex Flex wetsuit is the most flexible in the Orca range. It is designed for technical swimmers who benefit from great flexibility and do not need extra buoyancy. Its short reverse zipper construction provides a more elastic fit. Coupled with the most flexible materials on the market and the best hydrodynamic properties, this makes it the fastest wetsuit for the best open water swimmers.
Full freedom of movement during the swim allows you to get the best start in any triathlon. Make the most of your abilities and deliver one hundred percent performance. The Apex Flex, thanks to a combination of Yamamoto 44+ and 0.88 Free, offers you maximum elasticity. In your next competition, you'll benefit from a natural, completely unhindered flow of movement.
The neutral buoyancy of the Apex Flex doesn't affect your position in the water, which benefits you as an experienced swimmer with polished technique.
With the Apex Flex, you'll move through the water as if you weren't wearing a wetsuit at all. So you can take full advantage of your swim segment skills.
Highly water repellent materials that glide easily over your skin and a shorter zipper help you save important seconds in the transition area during your next race.
44+: The unique Yamamoto 44 technology used in Orca's top-of-the-line models is combined with the highly stretchable Infinity Skin 2 lining, for optimal freedom of shoulder movement. Nano Ice SCS surface treatment is used to improve hydrodynamics. It reduces friction in the water, helping to achieve maximum speeds. The inner lining is made of bamboo viscose fibers that provide flexibility in every arm pull, prevent odor and keep bacteria away. This combination provides total flexibility in the shoulder area of Orcas top wetsuits, which can be stretched with 90% less effort than those made of traditional neoprene.
40 FS: For maximum freedom, stretch and flexibility, we use Yamamoto 40 in combination with a lining of Infinity Skin 2 and complemented by a Smoothskin surface finish for Orca's top models. As a result, open water swimmers enjoy maximum freedom of movement in the shoulder area and require 72% less power than any other wetsuit. The bamboo viscose fibers of the liner provide flexibility in every pull, reduce odors and prevent the appearance of bacteria.
40 PF: In Orca's top models, the Power-fit lining with its compression properties combined with Yamamoto 40 ensures a perfect fit in the torso area and prevents water from flowing into the suit. In addition, the Nano Ice SCS surface treatment provides improved hydrodynamics by reducing friction in the water, allowing open water swimmers to feel the speed with every pull.
0.88 Free: 0.88 Free technology was developed with Yamamoto exclusively for Orca to design the most elastic material available today. The thinnest neoprene on the market, with a thickness of only 0.5 mm, combines the best lining with a layer of titanium to provide better thermal insulation. This revolutionary material is located on the arms and gives you the necessary compression of the arm muscles and maximum flexibility when bending the elbow during the swimming movement. One step ahead in technology.
