Alpha: Born to be the first

The new Alpha is our most advanced neoprene so far. Tested by professional athletes, it is designed for the best swimmers, the closest competitions and the experience of being the first one out of the water. And this is just the beginning... The new Alph

For 2018 Orca release a completely rebuilt version of their Alpha wetsuit aimed at natural swimmers, usually from a swimming background, who are looking for complete freedom in the water.

The new Alpha utilises super flexible 0.88 Free neoprene across the arms and lats. This has been designed in conjunction with Yamamoto who are the world’s main supplier of high performance neoprene. At 0.5mm thick this is the thinnest and most elastic wetsuit material on the market offering the ultimate in flexibility and freedom in the water.

This is combined with the exclusive Yamamoto 44 neoprene, which is their most flexible 1.5mm thick neoprene, across the shoulder and back panels. The dual flexibility of the shoulders and back allow Orca to employ a new half zip system that allows the neoprene to stretch across the full diagonal of the back.

 Throughout the rest of the suit Orca employ 3mm and 4mm thick Yamamoto neoprene to offer the best buoyancy and body position for the natural swimmer. Inside, a titanium laminate provides added thermal insulation, while the outer is treated to an SCS (Super Composite Skin) coating to reduce friction in the water. 

Not only is the Alpha the most flexible suit for triathletes with a natural swim stroke, but now it’s even faster in transition thanks to the FT1 2mm thick ribbed knee panels that offer superior flexibility as athletes run to their bikes.

All of these technologies fuse together to create the fastest possible wetsuit for natural swimmers, who can now swim without limits.

How to measure yourself

For best results, take your measurements with no clothing on

Place the measuring tape over the widest part of your chest.

Hold one end of the measuring tape in place and circle your chest, keeping the tape straight, until the tape reaches your starting point.

Get a book, a hand mirror and a pencil.

Take off your shoes and anything you wear on your head.

Look for a level surface to stand on with a smooth wall behind you.

Stand in front of the wall with your feet together.

Balance the book on your head and press it against the wall. Use the mirror to check that it is in a horizontal position and well centered. Mark the position of the top of your head on the wall with pencil.

Once the mark is made, step away and use a measuring tape to measure the distance from the ground to the mark you just made with pencil.

Step on the scale, without clothes or accessories, and write down your weight.
