Review for REPAIRED: Orca Men’s S6 Sleeveless Wetsuit – 2017 – Size MT
This suit has 1 small fingernail tear on the front of the left leg that has been professionally repaired.If you’re looking for an entry level open water swimming wetsuit that offers great flexibility and buoyancy at a superb price point.FLEXIBILITY – Flexible Powerstretch lining provide a superb range of motion and improve flexibility.BUOYANCY – SCS coated Yamamoto front panel and a 4.5mm lower back panel provides maximum buoyancy and freedom of movement in the water.COMFORT – With less panels on the legs, both functionality and comfort of the suit has been increased from it’s S5 predecessor.39CELL – Yamamoto 39cell is an extremely flexible neoprene which supports an uninhibited natural swimming motion. 39cell extends to a 513% 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. A fine balance between buoyancy and flexibility, 39cell is a durable material which will stand the test of time and distance, representing the best neoprene available in it’s class.SCS – Acting as a coating over closed-cell neoprene, Super Composite Skin (SCS) has become the benchmark for coating the smoothskin neoprene used in triathlon wetsuits, to reduce friction and increase speed through the water. The micro-cell structure of the SCS coating repels water when in contact with air and reduces surface resistance when in contact with water.HYDROLITE – HydroLite panels make transition that extra bit faster using the super fast SCS which combined with a special lining which absorbs less water to improve buoyancy while also being extremely sleek -making the suit fast to remove in transition saving you precious seconds.INFINITY SKN – It’s what’s on the inside that counts and Orca’s unique InfinitySkn lining plays an integral part in the unbelieveable flexibility of our wetsuits. Constructed from a high stretch nylon, InfinitySkn is strategically placed where ultimate stretch is required and allows the wetsuit to move dynamically through your swim stroke.MATERIALS – Collar: SCS, 2mm 39cell, Hydrolite.Underarm: SCS, 2mm 39cell, InfinitySkn.Chest: SCS, 3mm 38cell, InfinitySkn.Thighs: Smoothskin, 4.5mm 38cell.Shins: SCS, 3mm 39cell.Back: Smoothskin, 3mm 38cell.Back Hips: Smoothskin, 4.5mm 38cell.Hamstrings: Smoothskin, 3mm 38cell.Calves: Hydrolite, 3mm 39cell, InfinitySkn.
