The Orca Athlex Flow V2 Wetsuit is an evolution of the Sonar and is Orca's most balanced wetsuit, giving a harmonious combination of elasticity and buoyancy. The upper body features highly flexible materials for a natural swim stroke while the legs benefit from extra buoyancy - together they ensure a highly efficient hydrodynamic position and a powerful swim.
High buoyancy: The Athlex Flow integrates specialised technologies, including Aerdome applied to the lower body, to enhance buoyancy performance. These features enable you to maximise your swimming efficiency by maintaining an elevated, horizontal position in the water for extended periods.
High elasticity: Strategic material placement in the shoulders, arms, and back regions delivers superior upper-body flexibility, ensuring unrestricted movement throughout your swim. Eliminating shoulder graphics further enhances the Orca suit's flexibility, providing greater freedom with each stroke.
Hydrodynamics: SCS treatment is applied to all materials used in the wetsuit's construction, optimising your speed and water dynamics. This advanced surface treatment ensures nothing impedes your performance during competition.
Note: Avoid using your fingernails when putting on your wetsuit. Nails can easily cut the neoprene and leave small crescent moon-shaped cuts, leading to larger holes. Rips or tears due to lack of care are not covered by warranty, so please take extra care and follow the instructions enclosed with the product to prevent damage from happening.

Great wetsuit. I had the Orca Sonar from 2015 which lasted me really well and was a very good wetsuit. The Athlex Flow v2 is just as good, even more comfortable. Great buoyancy and very fast. The only challenge I have with it is it is very delicate. It’s thinner than the Sonar and I’ve got a few small tears in it after only a couple of outings. Black witch glue has fixed them but you have to be super careful. The white gloves are a must and even then take a lot of care.
Bought it one month ago after my aquashere broke after 5 years. Had 2 training swims with it in open water and one race. The results are horrible. 1500m training. 3(!) Minutes slower. Same time as a test with an oversized sailfish. Race: 1 min 40 sec slower over 1000m. And this one month after setting a 32 min time in a 70.3 in the aquashere. On top my zipper got stuck just ahead of the race today and it took 5 people before one managed to close it. I also got severe shafing in my neck. An issue I never had in the aquasphere, even for 3x the distance. All in all a huge disappointment.
