Have we surfers been duped?
There have been many, too many, “shark bite deterrents” marketed to us surfers, us naive suckers, over the past decade plus including, but not limited to, Shark Banz, eyeball decals, PowerBalance and Chomperz.
None of them have worked, obviously. More sinisterly, some have even acted as “shark bite attractants.”
Oh who wants us surfers in the world, us royal jerks?
Nobody is who and that’s why we don’t get eyeballs on the technology that appears to actually work.
Like Lee Jeans for Men, worn over wetsuits, that must do something as scientists etc. wear them while petting “man-eating” Great Whites.
But we must examine this just leaked photograph (above) from Ocearch, a leading shark tracking organization striking fear into the hearts of men, in greater detail.
And one more zoom.
Are those not Lee’s for him worn over a wetsuit?
To stop Great Whites from munching?
Tell me you wouldn’t style those in the lineup all day long.
Tell me these have only been kept from us because the world prefers its surfers in wheelchairs.
More as the story develops.
What a friggen joke. Go test them against a 18 ft Great White. I dare ya.
Maybe he’s a Canadian?
Didn’t the australian invented device to keep the shark away years ago? I think its called shark pod if not mistaken. Keep the sharks away with electric pulses. Why wait for them to bite when we can stop them from biting at all…?
Yet they keep returning to swim in our waters.
I’m sorry but this is the dumbest article you dont want to risk getting bit by a shark stay out of the ocean. Great whites aren’t killers they bite at what they think may be food. If you get bit that’s your own fault every time you go out into the ocean it’s a risk you take by entering their home their environment.
EXACTLY.
Not killers? So they have entire seal colonies thriving in their intestinal tracts?
I bite things that aren’t food.
I’ll bet you do too
Hey,
Captain obvious here. Stops wear and tear of the fragile outer layer of neoprene against the rough hide of Brucey.
I think it’s fair to assume that those are obviously Outerknown denim that is sustainably grown by alpacas for GOATs getting barreled in the ocean. Whether it’s cavernous Tahitian barrels or wrangling great white sharks, it’s gonna be OK! (See what I did there.)

Wouldn’t a shark wrangler prefer Wranglers?
Along with Dale Earnhardt Jr and everyone at Stagecoach?
Yep, can always tell the blokes who always skip legs day
Chas, I really do like you – but my god the shark thing is really wearing me down! Seriously, Intertia is starting to look interesting!
Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.
Amen!
Is this shark voyage your MH370 moment?…I love this place to much to see it crash and burn into the abyss.
My life motto, Otto.
More, give us more, and more, and even more, and then more…
Double denim, to be sure to be sure
