FCS POD SHARK DETERRENT
FCS x SHARKBANZ POD: Surf Shark Deterrent
If you're a surfer, you know that the ocean is a beautiful and powerful place. But it's also home to sharks, and while shark attacks are rare, they can be deadly. That's why it's important to take precautions when surfing and one of the best ways to do that is to wear a shark deterrent.
The FCS POD is a shark deterrent product designed specifically for surfing. It is a collaboration between FCS and Sharkbanz, two well-known brands in the surfing industry.
The FCS POD uses patented magnetic technology to create an electromagnetic field that interferes with a shark’s electroreceptors, which are used to detect prey. This interference causes the shark to become disoriented and turn away from the source of the electromagnetic field. It's also lightweight and durable, so you don't have to worry about it adding weight or drag to your board.
How the FCS Pod Works
Shark Testing Demo of the FCS x Sharkbanz Pod
The FCS Pod works by emitting a magnetic field that disrupts sharks' electroreceptors. Sharks use their electroreceptors to sense their surroundings, including prey and predators. When a shark swims near an FCS Pod, the magnetic field disrupts its electroreceptors, causing it to turn away.
The FCS Pod is not harmful to sharks or other marine life. It simply creates a magnetic field that is uncomfortable for sharks.

What distinguishes the FCS x Sharkbanz Pod from Sharkbanz 2?
