So I just read an article about shark shields on scubaherald created mainly for surfers. A lot of people have a thing about sharks, and inventing a so-called shark shield (a device designed to repel sharks using electrodes underwater) will no doubt ease a lot of minds. But thats just it! Easing minds? If buyers believe it works, it creates a comfort zone that wouldn’t exist otherwise. As it is the shark shield isn’t on the market yet. But what I’m trying to say is, scuba girls, it is one big ocean after all, and we are just another fish in the sharks habitat. I don’t reckon its worth dwelling on it. BUT if the item does indeed ease you or your customers minds, maybe its worth having a shark shield if it makes people relax and enjoy diving!

    What of the theorey that shark shields initially attract the shark, before it is finally and hopefully repelled as it gets closer.
    Watch out if you are not the one wearing the device. Your buddy might just get you chomped.
