Hi all I'm looking at a new wetsuit. Currently have a orca 3.8, starting to get a bit old now, was going to get the new 3.8, but noticed the roka maverick Pro ii on sale almost half price, but can't find many reviews, anyone that swims in the roka feedback would be grateful

Having the pro one following the orca sonar...it’s a damn fast suit.
But find roka kinda fragile (have/had 2 elite and the pro(which I keep for racing only))
If on sale worth a try.

I inherited an unused Roka Maverick Pro in the Spring (and it replaced my Orca Sonar)
The Roka has held up well except for small holes that formed in the front of the armpits. I have fixed those with wetsuit repair glue (or whatever it is called), and that has worked just fine.
From a swimming standpoint, the Roka is tied for first place (with my old B70 helix) as my favorite wetsuit.

If you do a search on here, you will find a lot of the opinions on Roka wetsuits. While ultimately the personal fit will trump quality/design, you will likely find most reviews range from Awesome to Freakin' Awesome.
