FCS X Sharkbanz Pod — Surf Shark Deterrent

Surfing in Santa Cruz means sharing the water with powerful wildlife. The FCS X Sharkbanz Pod is a discreet, effective tool designed specifically for surfers to help reduce the risk of shark encounters. This collaboration combines FCS’s decades of premium surf engineering with Sharkbanz's patented magnetic technology, providing a "stealthy" safety solution that doesn't compromise your performance

How It Works: The Pod utilizes powerful magnetic technology to emit an electromagnetic field that disrupts a shark’s highly sensitive "sixth sense"—their electroreceptors (Ampullae of Lorenzini). For the shark, this sensation is described as a "bright light" suddenly shining in a dark room, causing them to turn away without causing any permanent harm to the animal or other marine life.

Key Features:

Always On: No batteries or charging required; the magnetic technology is always active and ready for the water

Strap It or Stash It" Design: Extremely versatile—use the included neoprene pouch to strap it to any leash cuff, or simply stash it in your boardshorts or wetsuit key pocket

Lightweight & Discrete: Weighing in at only 2 oz (56.5 g), it is designed to be unnoticeable while paddling and surfing

Universal Fit: Suitable for any ocean enthusiast aged 5 and up

Durable Build: Waterproof up to 100m (330 ft) and constructed with premium, ergonomic materials for maximum comfort

Travel Ready: TSA and airline-friendly; includes a magnetically shielded box for safe storage near your electronics
