OCEAN GUARDIAN
The FREEDOM7, powered by Shark Shield technology is the ultimate ocean guardian for a wide range of marine sports. Its lightweight design makes it comfortable to wear and the long-life battery provides you with confidence in the water for up to six hours at a time, with a LED battery life indicator (C version)
NOTHING IS MORE EFFECTIVE.
Sharks have short-range electrical receptors in their snouts used for finding food. Shark Shield’s patented technology creates a powerful three-dimensional electrical field which causes unbearable spasms in these sensitive receptors turning sharks away, including Great Whites.
With the FREEDOM7, this electrical field is created via a trailing antenna attached to a power module worn on the ankle.
Shark Shield safety products are the ultimate ocean guardian providing peace of mind for surfers, divers, and ocean lovers around the world, while supporting shark conservation by removing the need for shark nets and culling.

Nothing is More Effective
Shark Shield is the world’s only scientifically proven electrical shark deterrent, nothing is more effective.
Sharks have short-range electrical receptors in their snouts used for finding food, Shark Shield’s patented technology creates a powerful three-dimensional electrical field which causes unbearable spasms in these sensitive receptors turning sharks away, including Great Whites.
Shark Shield technology has been developed over twenty-years in partnership with the world’s leading experts in sharks, including the KwaZulu-Natal Sharks Board in South Africa and independent universities, resulting in peer reviewed science journals confirming the technologies effectiveness in deterring sharks.
Twenty Years of Development
In 1995, it was discovered that sharks have a heightened sensitivity to close-range, low frequency electrical fields. Two decades of intensive global research has developed this knowledge into a reliable and essential piece of equipment that protects visitors to the ocean and the sharks that live there.
Shark Shield consists of two electrodes which, when both are submerged, emit a three-dimensional electronic field that surrounds the user. When a shark comes within a few meters of the Shark Shield, the strong electronic pulses emitted by the device cause the shark to experience muscle spasms.
This does NOT harm the shark in any way, but merely causes it to experience a high level of discomfort. From testing, the closer the shark is to the Shark Shield field, the more spasms occur in the sharks’ snouts, which results in it turning away from the electronic field, thereby protecting the user.
Ocean Guardian
Shark Shield safety products are trusted by surfers, divers and ocean lovers around the world and are recommended safety equipment in professional industries such navies and abalone diving.
With no known permanent harm to sharks the products directly support shark conservation by removing the need for culling or lethal means of enabling humans and sharks to share our oceans; the ultimate ocean guardian.
Scientifically Proven & Independently Tested
When you use a Shark Shield you are supported by the credibility and belief of some of the worlds leading oceanic organizations including the KwaZulu-Natal Sharks Board in South Africa, the University of Western Australia Ocean Institute and Flinders University.
As a result of continuous research and investment over the past twenty years, Shark Shield has lodged numerous patents relating to electrical shark deterrents.
Shark Shield is the world’s only scientifically proven electrical shark deterrent, nothing is more effective.
The company’s products are used by surfers, spear-fishermen, divers, ocean kayak fishing and in late 2016 the company launched an innovative new surfing product designed in partnership with 2 x World Surfing Champion Tom Carroll and the world’s leading surf hardware company Ocean & Earth.

In 2017 the company announced a technology breakthrough for a new long range shark deterrent utilizing a patented Metamaterial Electromagnetic Transducer, with expectations of repelling sharks within a 100-meter diameter of each unit installed. This long-range shark deterrent solution will not only protect beach goers as a beach barrier, aquaculture, yachting, etc. but significantly reduce the environmental impacts caused by using shark nets, drum lines and culling.
