Orca Apex Flex Women’s Wetsuit V2
£599.00
The Orca Apex Flex V2 women’s wetsuit, made with Yamamoto neoprene, is the most flexible suit in Orca’s entire range. It’s aimed at more technical swimmers who benefit from greater flexibility but who don’t need extra buoyancy. Its short, inverted zip construction allows for a more elastic design. The new Apex Flex V2 is even more flexible than the previous version thanks to its new patterning, which reduces tension in the shoulders and increases your freedom of movement, and a change in the arm graphics, which frees your shoulders and provides greater elasticity. This, combined with the most flexible materials on the market with the best hydrodynamic properties, makes this the fastest wetsuit for open water swimmers.

Description
Orca Apex Flex Women’s Wetsuit V2
Orca’s most flexible wetsuit
The Apex Flex V2 is aimed at technical swimmers who benefit from greater flexibility but don’t need extra buoyancy support. Its short, inverted zip construction allows for a more elastic design, and new shoulder patterning reduces tension and increases freedom of movement compared to the previous version.
Maximum freedom
Yamamoto 44+ and 0.88 Free technologies combine for maximum elasticity, with graphics removed from the shoulder area for a more natural stroke.
Low and neutral buoyancy
The suit’s low buoyancy is designed to let an experienced swimmer with refined technique maintain a natural position in the water rather than relying on flotation support.
Zero interference
The intention is to feel as close as possible to swimming without a wetsuit, supporting full potential through the swim stage.
Quick transition
Highly hydrophobic materials combined with a shorter zip 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?
Technical, experienced swimmers who want maximum flexibility and a natural feel in the water, without needing extra buoyancy support.
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.
Will it help or hinder my swim stroke?
It’s built specifically for freedom of movement — Yamamoto 44+/0.88 Free arm technology and graphics-free shoulders are aimed at a natural, unrestricted stroke.
How does it help with transition times?
A shorter, inverted zip combined with highly hydrophobic materials is designed to help the suit come off quickly once you’re out of the water.
How is sizing determined?
By chest measurement, height and weight together — Orca provides a sizing chart across XS to XL, including “T” tall variants.
