Orca Wetsuits

Are you looking into the 2xu wetsuit?  The 2xu wetsuit is one of the more popular wetsuits out on the market, other than the Orca that is.  There are many different kinds of them available with different logos and patterns as well as different lengths and fabrics.  You can get a completely different swimming experience depending on the quality of the fabric and how much of the fabric is covering your body.

To help you pick out the right 2xu wetsuit for your needs, here’s a quick look at some of the ones you have available to you:

1.  2XU Men's T:0 Team Wetsuit

Now although this is for men, there is a woman’s counterpart to this as there is with most of the suits.  This one costs $199.16 and Is a full body suit, covering up to the wrists and down past the calves, it’s also quite cheap.

This makes use of Yamamoto neoprene with SCS coating which improves buoyancy which translates to less of your body in the water and thus less drag and thus the ability to swim further than you would without this suit on.  This SCS coating really cuits down on water resistance and friction (f=0.032) and the underarm or lateral panel has 520% elongation. 

You will get maximum flexibility out of this suit which a decent range of arm extension, rotation, abduction and adduction. 

2.  2XU Men's V:1 Velocity Wetsuit - Bronze Stripe - MW1273c

If you want something more higher end though, consider this over at Amazon for $599.  This has a CWEZ concave water entrapment zone, propulsion panel, velocity strakes, nano SCS coating and seamless shoulder/arm panel.

The high veolocity strakes give better hydrodynamics as well as better forward motion.  The aquatic membrane arms on this yield more neutral buoyancy and give you a greater feel of the water.  The concave waer entrapment zones are located on the forearm and the propulsion panel is on the lower leg which gives you a bit more power on your kicks.

This comes in many sizes, MT, ST, MS, LT, X Large, XX Large, small, medium and large.  And of course this can be had in women’s sizes as well.

Now in looking for a 2xu wetsuit, those are 2 of the extremes you will find, there are many other wetsuits available though in between those price ranges if you find that neither of those meet your criteria, I would suggest doing a bit more browsing in order to check them out, It will help you gain more perspective and thus help you choose the 2xu wetsuit that is best suited for your purposes.
