INNOVATION & SAFETY
The Birth of Remora Shark Deterrent
Tommy's idea for Remora SD was born from firsthand experiences surfing in shark-populated waters. He saw the need for a simple, effective, and eco-friendly way to reduce the likelihood of shark encounters. Drawing from his expertise in craftsmanship and innovation, he created a patented shark deterrent that utilizes magnetic field technology to discourage sharks and stingrays from approaching.
The result? A lightweight, maintenance-free solution that seamlessly integrates with surfboards, paddleboards, kayaks, and diving gear—without harming marine life.
