Orca Women's Zen Freediving Wetsuit Features:
- Fit: The innovative materials and elastic properties of the Zen wetsuit allow the suit to fit your body comfortably. Its design minimizes water entry and the formation of water pockets, improving your freediving performance.
- Durability: The exterior fabric of the wetsuit's sleeves increases its durability and provides maximum protection from wear and tear. Because of the elastic properties of the combination of fabric and neoprene, the suit does not lose any flexibility, allowing you more freedom of movement during your descents and underwater adventures.
-
Hydrodynamics: The application of the most advanced surface coatings which minimise your body's water-resistance and improve hydrodynamics.
- Zero Restriction: The highly elastic materials making up the Zen increase its flexibility and range of motion, allowing you to move without restriction. For total freedom of movement in your hips and legs, an inverted zipper and optimized seams are incorporated into the lower back.
- Glued and Blind Stitched Seams: A high-performance seam is one that has a great deal of stretch but is also sealed and a GBS seam ticks both of those boxes. Learn more about seams.

Care instructions for longer durability
CLEANING
Neoprene can be damaged by excess salt or other chemicals such as chlorine if used in swimming pools. We recommend washing your wetsuit with plenty of water after use. A small amount of neutral pH soap can be used and then rinsed out afterwards.
Once clean, be sure to prevent it from holding on to too much moisture. Air dry it outside or in a ventilated indoor space, somewhere without direct exposure to sunlight as this can damage its materials.
STORAGE
Storing your wetsuit properly keeps the materials and seams from creasing and being strained for long periods of time. It also prevents the material from wrinkling, which can affect both the wetsuit's durability and appearance. The best way to store a wetsuit is to hang it draped from its waist, so that the most delicate areas such as the shoulders and arms do not have any tension on them. For wetsuits with very flexible shoulders, (Apex Flex or Apex Flow) it is important not to place them on a hanger from the shoulder area, as this will degrade the elasticity over time. For the rest of the models, a wide hanger can be used, as long as the wetsuit is not strained in the shoulder or neck area.
