If you are looking at Orca I would suggest the Equip which is the second level of Orca wetsuit. You will get slightly better use out of it as your swimming improves and won't need to replace it too soon.

Generally as you go up the line of wetsuit, you are gaining more flexibility and tailored buoyancy with differing panels of neoprene to suit your swim ability.

Similarly the 2XU T:2 suit while more expensive than the Equip offers a couple of different options but also has a 2 year warranty on seam welds which is excellent.
