Size Guide

The first wetsuit to offer a unique combination of safety and technology, with a built-in ID system that can store medical details and allow alerts to be sent if you don’t exit the water within a predetermined time.

 

Key Features

  • SMART: NFC IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM - The Openwater SW wetsuit features Emerid, a universal identification system using NFC/Contactless technology that instantly provides the athlete's information in the event of an accident or emergency.

  •  SAFETY: RESTUBE READY - The wetsuit features a Restube Ready connector so you can attach the Restube buoy without a belt, which will keep it stable, preventing wear to your wetsuit. Note: This wetsuit does not include the Restube buoy. With the purchase of the Openwater SW you will get a 15% discount code for the purchase of the Restube system on their website.

  • SAFETY: VISIBILITY - The high visibility orange used in the design will make it easy to locate you at all times.
  • SUPPORT: THERMAL INSULATION - The 4 mm thickness of the abdominal area will provide the thermal insulation you need, helping you maintain an ideal body temperature throughout your journey.
  • SUPPORT: CONFIDENCE IN THE WATER - This thickness will also give you the buoyancy you need to feel comfortable and confident in the water.
  • SPEED: FLEXIBILITY - The combination of different thicknesses of neoprene panels allows for a more elastic material to be placed in the arm area to increase flexibility in swim strokes. You'll be comfortable without the neoprene restricting your shoulders and arms.

Wetsuit Sizing:


Wetsuit sizing is one of the hardest but most crucial parts of selecting the best wetsuit.  Getting the right sized wetsuit can be a trial-and-error process. For this reason, we advise trying on a range of different wetsuits in different sizes and different makes and models as the exact shape and size of a wetsuit can vary even between wetsuits from the same brand. Quite often the manufactures size guides don’t reflect the best size for you.

THE TECHNOLOGIES

  • 39 CELL

    The Yamamoto 39 neoprene has high elasticity that allows it to be used in different areas of mid-range wetsuits. For fast, short-stroke movements, 35% less force is required than with conventional wetsuits. For slow, long-haul movements, 45% less force is required than with conventional wetsuits.

  • SUPER COMPOSITE SKIN (SCS)

    The rest of the wetsuits in the Orca triathlon range include this treatment to guarantee optimal performance.

  • HYDROLITE

    Hydrolite technology helps the wetsuit come off more easily, making transitions even faster.

  • INFINITY SKIN 2

    The Infinity Skin 2 inner lining provides a feeling of absolute freedom. Designed from a highelasticity nylon incorporating bamboo fibers, this technology is used in the lining of our wetsuit to provide greater flexibility in every stroke. It maintains body heat longer and reduces bad odors and the presence of bacteria in your neoprene. It is also composed of natural and environmentally sustainable materials, to avoid skin irritation and to care for the environment.
