Comfortable your entire swim. By Group home director from Montpelier, VT on 10/06/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Easy To Put On And Off Describe Yourself: Beginner Chest Size: Feels true to size Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: A great suit for the money. I'm 5'10", 140 and the MT size fits great. Goes on and comes off with minimal struggle. The suit does seem prone to cuts and seams wearing but these are mendable. Great mobility, especially under the arms.

By trubiroska from Olathe, ks on 06/15/2009 Describe Yourself: Casual User Chest Size: Feels too small Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The only problem I have with the ORCA equip is that the stickers that protect the inside inseams are peeling off already after 1st use. This equip is probably 4-5 year old model probably 2005-2006 and it has been in the warehouse probably for quite some time. Good for beginer or someone who needs triathlon wetsuit only couple times a year.

By biffbokeroba from sacramento,CA on 05/26/2009 Best Uses: Open water swim Describe Yourself: Casual User Chest Size: Feels too small Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought this to use for a couple local triathlons. I Have not pulled a wetsuit on for 20 years, so the technology has obviously changed. Seems small for the reported size, but once it is on, does not impede movement. A good value for its intended use.

I'd buy two but I only need one By Dave F. from Sacramento, CA on 05/22/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Easy To Put On And Off Best Uses: Colder Water, triathlon training Describe Yourself: Beginner Chest Size: Feels too small Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Even though I went by the sizing chart, the first one I received was a little too small so I returned it for a bigger size. I'm thrilled with my purchase. I used it for the first time last week and it was perfect. A great wetsuit for a first time triathlete.
By Tricycling from Los Angeles, CA on 04/28/2009 Cons: Awkward Fit, Hard To Put On Or Off Describe Yourself: Casual User Chest Size: Feels too small Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Unfortunately, this wetsuit never made it into the water because I had problems with fit issues. Being 5'10" and 188 lbs, my size should be an 8 (unless I'm reading the size chart wrong). I had problems just getting the wetsuit on let alone trying to zip it up! If you decide to purchase this wetsuit, I would suggest that you go with the chart if you're on lower end of the weight scale for what they recommend. Otherwise, expect to take some time putting the wetsuit on...
