The S3 Sleeveless is constructed from Smoothskin neoprene for excellent levels of flexibility, buoyancy and thermal protection. It is an ideal option for those transitioning from pool swimming to open water swimming or taking their first steps into triathlon. The 3-5mm HydroLift Body Panels on the front and back of the wetsuit help body position in the water, while the Speed Transition Calf Panel helps with quicker removal of the wetsuit in transition. The S3 Sleeveless is one of the best value triathlon wetsuits on the market and is perfect as a starter wetsuit, or as a training wetsuit for more experienced swimmers.
Excellent levels of buoyancy, flexibility and thermal protection
This review is from: Orca 2011 Men's S3 Sleeveless Wetsuit - YVN6 (Misc.)
I'm happy to report on this suit. When buying a suit, sleeves or sleeveless? I have two suits. One with and one without. It all comes down to preference. I like my sleeveless because it give me a wider range of motion in the arms. First, I'm not the strongest swimmer and my technique isn't that of Michael Phelps. This suit is especially well designed. Orca has put a lot of technology into this entry level suit. I noticed that it fit really well. It hugged me in all the right places and i didn't sacrifice any flexibility. When after a couple of open water swims, i felt very comfortable with no hot spots. The suit features 5mm in the core along the torso and upper legs which aids in additional buoyancy as well as balance. My body position was spot on. I wasn't sinking and fighting to maintain a body position. I'm very please with this suit as it has helped me level the playing field against better swimmers.
Good value for the price.
