Our SHARKGUARD boards were recently tested on bull sharks off the Florida coast with the Florida Shark Diving team. Below are the comments from Jordan who was in the water filming and spends as much time in the water with sharks as anyone
A Kickstarter allows us to invest in more production and stay on top of the supply of the rare earth magnets needed for these boards. Your email address below simply keeps you up to date on the launch and gives you access to early promotional discounts (i.e. the best offer)
Rare earth magnets (4 in the bodyboard, 6 in a surfboard) project a strong magnetic field into the water, deterring sharks even from bait (as seen in the video).
No batteries required, no strange bumps or seams, no significant weight increase or performance downside. SHARKGUARD boards ride just as well and last just as long as all Rock-It surfboards
Integrating magnetic technology into the boards is much less expensive than buying a board + a separate accessory (magnetic shark deterrent band). Plus, not having to put on another accessory means one less thing to forget about!
Three different sizes ensure there is something for everyone
Not only are the boards safer than most, but they also surf better than most softboards. Rock-It has been around for over 10 years and has developed a hard earned reputation for providing excellent boards & top notch customer service
Easy to ride, lots of float, soft construction, safe materials. We built Rock-It Surf around making the best beginner boards that spread the joy of surfing.
In addition to the patented SHARKGUARD magnetic technology, all Rock-It boards also feature our trademark Sea Camo striped bottom, which acts as a visual shark deterrent by breaking up the pattern/outline that a shark sees in the water, so it doesn't identify the object as prey. Looks good and doubles down on safety!
