Offering more than any other wetsuit in its class, the Orca Sonar is constructed from BioCell SCS, a dense structure neoprene that delivers exceptional buoyancy and flexibility. Designed for the intermediate level triathlete, the 2008 Orca Sonar has been given a striking new Maori-inspired design across the shoulder. New features include the HydroStroke Forearm Panel, which helps increase the power of each swimming stroke, and a 2mm stretch neoprene Speed Transition Calf Panel, which allows an easier and faster transition.
AIRLITE SCS BODY PANEL
The dimpled exterior of Orca’s exclusive 5mm AirLite body panel has full ventral coverage, from neckline to ankle. Constructed of the world’s most buoyant triathlon-legal neoprene. Unique air cavities on the inner layer translate into a 15% more lightweight material, and a 25% increase in pitch-perfect buoyancy – guaranteed to improve swim times.
SPEED TRANSITION PANEL
Speed transition panel for faster transitions while maintaining the best seal in the water. Multiple design applications with one purpose: speed.
SLIPSTREAM ZIP
Race-proven drag reduction technology providing the least possible resistance between wetsuit and water.
NEOPRENE AQUASKIN SCS
This extremely flexible neoprene is the base material for all Orca wetsuit panels. AquaSkin SCS supports an uninhabited natural swimming motion, extending to a 520% elongation rate, which allows the material to trace your body’s motion. Second-skin comfort and superior movement is enhanced by zero water absorption and zero weight-variation, which can mean only one thing: more speed.
HYDRASTROKE FOREARM PANEL
Superior design with single-minded purpose. All-new printed silicone pits act as water traps, increasing pulling power in the catch phrase of the swim stroke. Embedded in a super stretch water-resistant OptiFlex 2mm jersey, the HydraStroke panel features Aqua Channels that provide through-flow of water, for reduced effort in the reach phase of your stroke.
HYPERSTRETCH UNDERARM GUSSET
2mm neoprene increases flexibility, comfort and speed through the water and provides perfect weighting to aid rotation and reach. Advanced material technology for enhanced movement and range.
FLEXISEAL NECK
The water-tight internal smoothskin and anti-chafe neck tab work to increase comfort and reduce water entry. Velcro fastening maximizes drag-free movement, durability and seal.
DELTA STRETCH SHOULDER PANEL
2mm BioCell neoprene technology for correct positioning and flexibility through each phase of the swim stroke
