About Ocean Guardian FREEDOM+ Surf Shark Deterrent for Short Board

The Ocean Guardian FREEDOM+ Surf Shark Deterrent for Short Board is a revolutionary solution designed in collaboration with Tom Carroll and Ocean & Earth to provide surfers with a seamless and effective shark deterrent system. Specifically designed for surfboards sized 6'6" and under, this deterrent ensures peace of mind without compromising performance, allowing you to surf with freedom.

Backed by extensive scientific testing and proven to be the most effective electrical shark deterrent available, the FREEDOM+ Surf - SHORTBOARD offers unmatched reliability. It has been independently tested and proven to deter species like Great Whites, Tiger Sharks, and Bull Sharks, providing a safe surfing experience.

Installation is a breeze, and you can easily set it up on both new and old boards without the need for a shaper. The sticker-thin adhesive decal antenna, with a thickness of <= 500 microns, adheres to the underside of your board and connects to the custom-designed Tail Pad. This ensures that your surfing performance remains unaffected while benefiting from the added protection.

The Transferable Power Module, included with the deterrent, features a long-life 6-hour rechargeable lithium battery, allowing you to enjoy multiple surf sessions on a single charge. The module is removable and can be used on any board equipped with the Tail Pad, making it highly versatile. For those occasions when you prefer not to use the power module, a foam insert is provided for the Tail Pad kicker.

Ocean Guardian stands behind the FREEDOM+ Surf Shark Deterrent with a 30-Day Money Back Guarantee, ensuring your satisfaction and confidence in their product. Rest assured, this deterrent does not cause permanent harm to sharks or attract them. However, it is important to note that it is not suitable for children under 14, pregnant women, or individuals with specific medical conditions.

Experience the freedom to surf while feeling protected with Ocean Guardian's FREEDOM+ Surf Shark Deterrent for Short Board. Covered by their Standard Warranty, this cutting-edge system combines a custom Ocean & Earth Tail Pad, a Transferable Power Module, and a decal antenna with electrodes. When submerged, the electrodes emit a three-dimensional protective electrical field, creating a shark deterrent zone.

The oblong-shaped electrodes measure 2cm (0.78") wide and 10cm (3.93f) long, spaced approximately 36cm (14.17f) apart.

The Transferable Power Module, weighing 250g (8.82oz), features a rechargeable lithium battery and offers an operating time of 5-6 hours in the water.
