8' Big Softy Longboard With SHARKGAURD
Rockit Surf 8' Big Softy Longboard With SHARKGAURD Soft Top Surfboard
96 x 22.7 x 3.3" / 81 Liters
The world's first surfboard with integrated magnetic shark deterrent technology.Ā Not only does it help to keep you safe in the water, it's the exact same proven top-selling 8' Big Softy shape and construction.
- Patented SHARKGUARD Magnetic Shark DeterrentĀ
- 3x fins included (performance fin box system)
- UV resistant deck (wax not required)
- For riders up to 225lbs
- Rock-It Zebra Striped Sea Camo HDPE bottom slick
The Rock-It BIG SOFTY with SHARKGUARD is designed to be the easiest board to surf on. Big (but not too big!), buoyant, easy to paddle & turn yet stable. Not to mention, it's proven shape (with a wide nose and tapered tail) absolutely shreds!Ā Perfect for beginners, all around family use, unpretentious surfing (while you catch all the waves...) or simple summer cruising!
SHARKGUARD
Six epoxy coated specialized magnets are imbedded into the foam beneath the HDPE slick bottom of the board, projecting a magnetic field into the water around the board rider.Ā This is a known and effective shark deterrent.Ā The magnetic field overwhelms a shark's sensory electroreceptor system and causes discomfort in the animal.Ā No harm is done to the shark.Ā No batteries or recharging are required.Ā Visit https://www.rock-itsurf.com/pages/sharkguard-bodyboard for more details, links to testing videos, peer reviewed scientific tests and more.
SEA-CAMO ZEBRA STRIPED BOTTOM
In addition to the patented SHARKGUARD technology, we add a visual deterrent to our boards as well. In 2013 a University of Western Australia neurobiologist conducted research that indicated a zebra striped pattern was a deterrence to sharks & presented their results in a Ted Talk. The patterns disperse the sharkās ability to identify the item, and mimic non-food source items in their environment.
CONSTRUCTION
The Rock-It BIG SOFTY with SHARKGUARD is made with quality construction and environmentally sensitive processes. Three marine wooden stringers are coated with an epoxy nano-coating to resist water absorption, then surrounded with a proprietary EPS foam and a color-fast & UV resistant soft top layer. The soft top has a wide texture and doesn't require wax, although wax will improve grip.
The entire board is heat laminated with no harmful dyes, glues, resins or toxins in the production process, and manufactured in a facility that uses collected rainwater. All materials used are recyclable. All Rock-It surfboards come with a one year warranty against manufacturing defects.
Please note that we do not guarantee SHARKGUARD works equally across all shark species and that all interactions with sharks will be avoided. Read all disclosures below.
Ā
SharkGuard Reduces Risk But DoesĀ NotĀ Eliminate It
- SharkGuard is a shark deterrent that helpsĀ reduce the riskĀ of unwanted shark interactions, but weĀ do not guarantee complete protectionĀ or prevention of all shark encounters. There isĀ no guarantee of zero shark interactionsĀ with the device.
- Ambush attacks from large predatory species will not be deterred by SharkGuard.
Magnetic Field & Medical Devices
- Because SharkGuard uses strong magnets,Ā people withĀ pacemakers, defibrillators, or other implanted medical devices should not attempt to handle or ride a board containing SharkGuard technologyĀ without consulting a doctor.
- These magnets can alsoĀ disrupt sensitive electronicsĀ (e.g., hard drives, credit cards, cell phones) if placed too close (recommended at least ~12 inches/30 cm away).
Care Tip: when not in the water, keep the soft-top out of direct sunlight.
