Top Features of the Orca Ladies Kaisei Wetsuit
Exclusive to Wiggle!
- Female
Orca's new Kaisei wetsuit combines a light, flexible neoprene with a host of key features to make it the ideal wetsuit for those taking their first steps into triathlon and open water swimming. Constructed from a durable, flexible, water-resistant, smoothskin neoprene, the Kaisei provides excellent buoyancy and thermal protection. Those unfamiliar with wetsuit swimming will appreciate the features that only a few years ago were present in intermediate level wetsuits. The 5mm HydroLift body panels on the front and back will help with body position in the water, while the 2mm QuadraFlex underarm panel and DeltaStretch shoulder panel help provide an excellent range of motion.
PROJECT KAISEI - CLEARING UP THE GREAT PLASTIC GARBAGE PATCH: In early 2009, Orca partnered with Project Kaisei - a group committed to raising awareness of the damage the world's discarded plastics are doing to our oceans and marine life. Orca is supporting Project Kaisei's expeditions to an area in the Pacific, roughly twice the size of Texas, where through a quirk of ocean currents, huge volumes of plastic and debris accumulates. We are also making changes to how we operate as a business and to raise awareness of the issue and Project Kaisei through our networks. "Kaisei" means "Ocean Planet" in Japanese and is the name of Project Kaisei's main expedition ship. By purchasing an Orca Kaisei wetsuit you are directly supporting Project Kaisei.

About Wetsuits
Modern triathlon wetsuits were invented by Dan Empfield in 1987 and are customized to the needs of triathletes, they generally incorporate the following key features which differentiates them from a normal wetsuit. 1, Thinner and/or more pliable rubber near the shoulders. 2, Long zippers to facilitate quick removal during transition. In addition, tri wetsuits have a very smooth, but often fragile, surface. This slick surface helps to reduce water friction and allows a faster swim. Another advantage of a tri wetsuit is the added buoyancy that the wetsuit provides, this can provide triathletes with a considerable speed and energy saving advantage over swimming without a suit.
About the Orca brand
Whilst working as a swim coach, and from his first hand experience in competing in triathlon, Scott Unsworth realised that the wetsuits used at the time were completely inadequate for swimming. In 1992 Scott started up a company called Performance Speedsuits Ltd, based out of his parent's house in Auckland, New Zealand. He began to develop his "Speedsuits", which featured greater flexibility and buoyancy than other existing wetsuits. The business started with Scott selling his Speedsuits from the back of his car at swim meets and triathlon events. The Speedsuits quickly gained a following amongst athletes and the business started to grow. Scott was taking his first steps towards introducing what would become Orca, to the world. A young New Zealand triathlete named Hamish Carter became one of the first athletes to sign up with the company that is now Orca. Over the next 13 years Hamish Carter went on to become one of the best known triathletes in the world - culminating in a gold medal at the 2004 Olympics in Athens.
