Description
Orca Apex Float Women’s Wetsuit V2
Maximum buoyancy
The Apex Float V2 incorporates technologies aimed at maximum buoyancy and consistent swimming technique, correcting posture in the water. It’s suited to swimmers who want extra support holding their position, or who want to conserve energy over a long-distance swim leg.
Maximum elasticity
Despite prioritising buoyancy, the suit uses Yamamoto 40 in the shoulders and High Elbow Panel technology in the arms for a greater sense of freedom. New shoulder patterning and graphics-free shoulder panels help the stroke feel natural and unrestricted.
Thermal comfort
3mm thickness through the chest and back, with 5mm through the legs, gives added protection against cold sea temperatures during the swim leg.
Quick transition
Highly hydrophobic materials help the suit come off quickly during transition.
What’s included
A mesh backpack and fabric gloves come included, for storing/transporting the wetsuit and putting it on without damaging the material.

Who is this wetsuit suited to?
Swimmers who want extra buoyancy to help maintain position in the water, or who want to conserve energy over long-distance triathlon swims.
Will the extra buoyancy restrict my stroke?
The suit combines maximum buoyancy with Yamamoto 40 shoulder material and High Elbow Panel arm technology, along with graphics-free shoulder patterning, aimed at keeping the stroke natural despite the added buoyancy.
Does it keep you warm in cold water?
Yes — 3mm thickness through the chest and back and 5mm through the legs is built specifically for cold sea temperatures.
Does it come with anything else?
Yes — a mesh backpack for storage and transport, and fabric gloves to help put the suit on without damaging the neoprene.
How is sizing determined?
By chest measurement, height and weight together — Orca provides a sizing chart across XS to XL, including “T” tall variants.
