A Great Entry Level Suit

The S5 wetsuits is made using 5mm neoprene on the front panels so that it offers optimum buoyancy, the 5mm neoprene helps lift your hips out of the water and combined with 2mm neoprene under the arms which ensure flexibility in your stroke makes the S5 is an ideal suit for those just getting into open water swimmer and less confident swimmers.

39-CELL
Yamamoto 39cell is an extremely flexible neoprene which supports an uninhibited natural swimming motion. 39cell extends to a 513% elongation rate, meaning this material is sure to move with you. Added benefits of zero water absorption and zero weight variation can mean only one thing: more speed. A fine balance between buoyancy and flexibility, 39cell is a durable material which will stand the test of time and distance, representing the best neoprene available in it’s class.

SCS
Acting as a coating over closed-cell neoprene, Super Composite Skin (SCS) has become the benchmark for coating the smoothskin neoprene used in triathlon wetsuits, to reduce friction and increase speed through the water. The micro-cell structure of the SCS coating repels water when in contact with air and reduces surface resistance when in contact with water. Less friction = more speed!

Orca Orca Women's S5 Fullsleeve Wetsuit 2015 4.6 5 12 12

Great Product Great wetsuit for open water swimming. Fast and efficient delivery from wiggle as always. 18 July 2015

great wetsuit I got the wrong size so am trying another size otherwise seems great! 21 June 2015

Excellent product I purchased this wetsuit for my wife's first open water event. Both Orca and Wiggle got everything spot on, the sizing guide was accurate and the click and collect service with Wiggle was easy and convenient. The wet suit has been superb and does exactly what it says on the tin. Super fit and excellent quality, it has been tested in the Mediterranean and my wife is one happy lady. She loves it. 10 June 2015

Exellent beginners wetsuit. For a beginner in OW this is an exellent wetsuit. It helps you to stay in the right position in the water and gives great buoyancy and therefore supports the not experienced swimmer. It fits fine and have at high neck. You can move your arms without any problems. The price is without any doubt reasonably and I would say you get high quality for a low price. Only thing that you have to be aware of is that it's a bit short in the legs and stops in the middle of the calf of you have long legs. 09 June 2015

Answer:

The XL would suit your height, however it will likely be too tight I am afraid.
