Just wanted to clarify that Surfsafe is not the "other" device that failed to deter sharks recently referred to by sharkshield in there latest round of sprooking Thank you for the support shown by all our loyal customers Unfortunately some people choose to try and mislead others by inferring . And that's the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth

I thought that the sharkshield guy was disingenuous with his comment. Usually the tactic of someone threatened by the truth. Good luck with Surfsafe.

Happy to back a home grown product where the man who makes it puts his money where his mouth is regarding testing, funding and research.

I read the start of that article in the paper and flicked the page over ha ha, sounds like they have showed their true colours and all without anyone else's help.

I think you are always going to get a bit of those tactics in the big league, roll with the punches and keep up the good work mate

Dave is this the article your talking about?
~~https://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/wa/a/30224445/wa-shark-deterrent-sales-soar/~~

Another article makes it clear they are talking about the anklet device being the one that doesn't work;

And for anyone wondering - shark season has definitely arrived - how's the form of the white in the line up at windmills;
