IN A NUTSHELL...
The Orca Womens Equip is ideal for those transitioning from the pool to open water, or unfamiliar with swimming in a wetsuit.
Design details
2-4mm premium quality SCS-coated Yamamoto 39-cell neoprene front panels ensure a range of motion normally associated with intermediate and top level wetsuits. A multi-stretch lining makes the suit incredibly flexible, (used in our Sonar Wetsuit).The Equip's Hydrostroke forearm panel has a distinctive silicone print, which catches the water through the pull phase of the stroke. 3-4mm Smooth Skin neoprene panels through the back to provide addition support in the water, and refinements to the waist panel extending it over the chest add buoyancy, The 2014 Equip's redesigned torso panel also provides better body positioning. Speed Transition panels on the calves aid transition times.

FEATURED TECHNOLOGIES
39 CELL Yamamoto 39-cell is an extremely flexible neoprene, which supports an uninhibited natural swimming motion. Yamamoto 39-cell neoprene extends to a 520% elongation rate, meaning this material is sure to move with you. Added benefits of zero water absorption and zero weight-variation can mean only one thing: more speed.
YAMAMOTO The Yamamoto Corporation is the world's main supplier of high performance neoprene. Its seal represents quality, technology and innovation.
SCS Applied as a coating over closed-cell neoprene. The micro-cell structure of the SCS coating repels water when in contact with air and reduces surface resistance when in contact with water.
INFINITE SKIN It's what's on the inside that counts and Orca's unique Infinite Skin plays and integral part in the unbelievable flexibility of the RS1 Predator, 1.5 Alpha and the 3.8 Enduro. Constructed from high stretch nylon, 4-way stretch is used as the lining of the Free-Wing, Free-Fly and Free-Flex panels of the Alpha 1.5, the shoulder panels of the 3.8 Enduro and the RS1 Predator, allowing the wetsuit to move dynamically through your swim stroke.
