So if you are a surfer I wish you the prosperity that allows you more time to pursue the salt water dream, and the true happiness that comes from warm water, clean waves and the companionship of your fellow surfers. If you are an internet troll just spewing bs then f off.

I like to drop a drippy deuce at the sight of any bull shark. I am told that the incredible taste receptors on his formidable snout will let him know with absolute certainty that I taste like shit. I just hope bull sharks don't like that flavor.

Wow that's cool. Some interesting video tests on their website.

When a false sense of security gizmatron is the source of your peace of mind, it becomes even more dangerous than being aware that sharks are always in the water and proceeding with activity accordingly.

I'd watch this independent test before you invest in that false sense of security...

CLICK ME!

Not only did the Sharkbanz not deter the shark, it came back for the band itself.

You need to read the reply from Sharkbanz in the comments below the video. They claim that was not a valid test. The Sharkbanz has to be moving to create the magnetic field and the deterrent effect.

So when you see the shark coming to get you, flap that leg vigorously before he gets there!

Actually, as bad as a bleeding femoral artery can be, I'd be more worried about major organs around my gut, and not sure how to make those parts move, other than the beer-gut jiggly-wiggly, or shivering on a cold day.

"Well, clearly the victim wasn't moving the gizmatron in the proper motion to activate the earth's magnetic field to a level of excitation beyond that of the shark's curiosity and appetite.  It's tough to know for sure and we'd like the opportunity to analyze it in more detail, but the device is currently resting in the belly of the beast driving that son of a bitch inzane due to the constant motion it's experiencing attached to the lower half of that surfer's leg where our product unfortunately was securely attached and sitting helplessly idle when the attack occurred.  

We make every effort to explain the science behind correct and effective operation of our unique product in the comments of independent test videos, but apparently not everyone reads them."  -Sharkbanz

One of the youtube comments:

 Bro I'm from florida and was diving yesterday with a buddy who was wearing one of these things. I swear on my daughters lives I watched that very same guy spear a nice hogfish. He hadn't yet noticed the 7' + Reef Shark that came in just before he pulled the trigger. Seconds after the shark rushed in from right behind him blowing by him turning right before deciding not to take his fish. After that the shark circled him within inches as if he was wearing nothing!!! Later on the boat I had asked him what that thing was, I thought it was a heart rate monitor connected to his freedive watch, cause I can tell you first hand THE SHARK GAVE ZERO FUCKS ABOUT THAT THING!

Pretty sure he was in motion...

seems we have one anecdotal experience (CERTON's video) vs another (SharkBanz video). 

 

Now I don't know what to believe. We need more science.

Looks like a product searching for a killer lawsuit.
