The Athlex Float is a new evolution of the Orca S7. The ATHLEX line turns energy into momentum. Watch yourself improve every day and see you body and mind get stronger with each stroke. Athlex is the perfect range for those looking to chart their own path. The FLOAT family of wetsuits are ideal for those who are just starting out in triathlon or swimming or still haven’t gotten their body position right in the water. This solution is for swimmers who are not completely comfortable in the water and/or are looking for a wetsuit that can help them correct their technique. Float provides extra buoyancy to help athletes achieve a stable position in the water, which greatly improves their performance. Although flexibility is important, when you don’t have a perfect technique and your stroke isn’t polished, buoyancy becomes the most determining factor in improving time. The ATHLEX FLOAT model is Orca’s “entry level” most buoyant wetsuit, which replaces the previous S7 model. This wetsuit incorporates specific technologies for maximum buoyancy, helping swimmers who need support in order to maintain a hydrodynamic position in the water. It also incorporates materials in the upper body, allowing for more freedom in your swim stroke.

I'm doing a Sprint Triathlon for my first time. Swimming is my weakness. Without wetsuit I can swim the 750m under 20 minutes, with this suit in 15 minutes. Total game changer.I tried a couple of wetsuits and this one was the best. I bought if from Canada and had to pay $32CAD in customs tax, so be careful.

Bought this to replace another wetsuit bought on Swiminn. The fit is excellent. The material is super stretchy and doesn't feel restrictive at all and this also helps with a really close fit that keeps the majority of water out and helps retain heat. I do get the odd trickle down my back but nothing major. As a novice open water swimmer I find the design does help flatten out my position. Overall I'm very happy with the suit and Swiminn.

I am 1.78m tall with 111cm chest size and the size 9 fits me perfectly. Kept me warm in 15 deg waters and no chafting issues. I am not a very experienced swimmer ( this is my 2nd suit) but, I went into the water for 3k swims four times now and I am everytime impressed with the stability and comfort it offers in water. Product was delivered 3 days after the online delivery!

Very happy with product, certainly a step up from my old (7 year) orca wetsuit. Service faultless & great value 🤙
Good one for starters. Was hesitating about the size, but fit very well. For reference, I go with size 8, height 189cm, weight 84kg, chest 103cm.
Swim in the suit once, very comfortable. However despite using the gloves to put on and off the upper arm has developed a small hole. Where the rubber appears perished. Need to follow up with Sigma, or Orca.
Can’t wait to get into the ocean pool and test this bad boy out! Very tight and snug fit, with plenty of flexibility in the arms.Morgan and Ella were fantastic with their knowledge, passion, patience and wanting the best for me as a customer
After ordering half a dozen wetsuits between £120-£200 and trying my best to follow some not very accurate sizing guides I found this to be bang on. For reference I’m 5’11, 90kg and pretty broad around the shoulder/back area and ordered this in size 9 and it’s beautifully snug. Only used it a few times so no idea of the longevity but it feels great in the water.
I bought this for an ironman swim wetsuit, was really comfortable and helped with my speed
I bought it after reading the review on 220Triathlon. it is a great budget wetsuit, comfortable, and pretty flexible. excellent for a not-great swimmer as I am
