As a surfer you often have sharks in your mind, especially when entering certain spots. After surviving a shark attack, Ocean Guardian has given me the confidence to be in the water and I don’t have to worry thinking about sharks anymore. I even surf spots that I would not surf before for this reason. This is the only device that really works. Read about Fede’s amazing survival story here.

Just returned from 10 days surfing at Point Sinclair using one of your units. I found it gave me much more confidence in the water and enabled me to relax and not spend all my time looking over my shoulder after 2 close encounters here last year. Only complaints being a fairly short legged person I found the unit to be a touch long on my lower leg and a touch restrictive when paddling and riding smaller waves [not often a problem at this spot].

I am all round won over by your product and noticed my mates though at first...

I used my Shark Shield SURF7 for the first time this weekend and loved it! I rode my 6’10 quad fish surfboard and didn’t even notice it was on the board. The media should be ashamed of themselves for spreading false propaganda about this device. I looked back as I was paddling as fast as I could and the electrode antenna was completely submerged at all times. The surfing conditions would have to be really terrible for it to be skipping around on the surface of the water. I was really relaxed in the line-up this weekend thanks to Shark...

Having used the Shark Shield whilst surfing for some time now, my opinion on the unit is as follows.

Importantly, Shark Shield doesn’t impede on my surfing action.
The Shark Shield is portable and doesn’t make much longer to set up than attaching a normal leg rope to the board.
The Shark Shield is easily cleaned after a surf.
My family and wife never liked the idea of me surfing alone on the west coast before, but now they are all comfortable with it.
Mainly, the Shark Shield lets me feel comfortable and relaxed while I’m out surfing, especially since the shark sightings are becoming...

Yesterday was my first confirmed encounter with a great white surfing. I have surfed around 15 sessions now with my SURF7 amidst several shark incidents on my stretch of coast near Ballina and Byron Bay Australia. Yesterday was my first confirmed encounter with a great white surfing with 3 others at flat rock Ballina, close to the site of last months attack and fatality. We all exited the water when one of our group raised the alarm. It reinforces my trust in your device as I can with certainty say that I have been circled by a very large one...

attila-izdebski-surfer-cactus-south-australia-summary-0.xxx? I just like to thank Shark Shield for the SURF7, as it gives peace of mind surfing the Mid Coast & West Coast of South Australia. On those days of long lulls between sets & wave conditions being fairly random, I now feel less exposed wearing my Shark Shield SURF7.

I have several boards that are all fitted for the Shark Shield SURF7. Embracing change seems difficult for older crew, surfers especially seem slow to adopt something that potentially will save their lives & enhance their enjoyment in the water. I must admit it took a few sessions to get...

I use a Shark Shield for peace of mind for myself and my family. I have four children with another on the way. My wife and my mother were both very concerned about me surfing with all the shark attacks and strongly encouraged me to get a Shark Shield. I don’t surf with it all the time. I use it when I’m surfing alone or days that seem “sharky” and overcast. I also use it early in the morning and at dusk.

I had heard the rumour that it attracts sharks, but I read up on that and I now understand...

I used to only use my Shark Shield in sharky areas, but after a mate was taken by a shark, I use it all the time now. It takes that little niggle out of the back of my mind, helps you relax and just surf.

I don’t really notice the Shark Shield, a bit in small waves under three feet when there’s not a lot of power, you can feel it a bit at the top of your turns, and it’s difficult to throw the tail. But if there is a bit of punch in the wave then no dramas. No...
