The Shark Shield FREEDOM7 is a compact, versatile and light weight
personal shark deterrent system which allows you to explore and enjoy
the oceans without fear. It's designed for all water sports including,
swimming, spear fishing, bodyboarding and snorkelling and is the
preferred product for scuba divers. The Shark Shield FREEDOM7 is fitted
to the ankle region with the supplied neoprene and Velcro pouch.
The unit incorporates a velcro pouch, that is attached to the ankle
region and 2.2m flexible mesh antenna. Once the antenna is submerged in
salt water the electrodes emit the protective field.
The FREEDOM7 antenna has been designed to cause minimum of water resistance and drag on the user.
Shark Shield's unique wave form elliptical field only affects free
swimming sharks and to a minor degree rays and skates. The field
generated by the Shark Shield is detected by the shark through its
sensory receptors known as Ampullae of Lorenzini, situated on the snout
of all predatory sharks. The unique and unfamiliar pulsing sensation
emitted by the Shark Shield does not replicate that given off by a fish
and does not attract sharks to an area. Shark Shield allows you to
hunt, photograph or just swim with all other marine animals roaming
freely in their ocean settings.
