Biting back at pollution, one recycled ocean plastic product at a time.
What is The Biteback?
The Biteback is a spike, made and designed in Australia, to help surfers and ocean goers fend off sharks.
The 316 stainless steel spike has a handle and sheath made with recycled ocean plastic. It is NOT designed to kill, but gives you a better chance at persuading sharks that you are not an easy meal.
The low profile case sits comfortably out of the way and keeps your Biteback secure, yet very easy to access in case of emergency.
History
We started Biteback because we want clean(er) oceans and we want a market flooded with products made from recycled ocean plastics.
Why not a spike to help ocean goers feel safer and increase their odds of survival if a shark were to become curious or aggressive?
We love and respect these gods and have a long history with them. We wish we could always live in harmony with them, but when we venture into the ocean, they are the top predator.
Humans have no natural defense, except for our brains. Research has shown that sometimes, all it takes is a sharp bump or poke around its face to dissuade it of further interaction.

Protect yourself and help clean up the ocean.

ABOUT
When we enter the ocean we must consider and respect the shark, because we are in their natural environment. Nonetheless, finding yourself in the company of a hungry or curious shark is not a good feeling, seeing as we have no natural defense.
We do have brains however and research has shown that the eyes, gills and electroreceptors concentrated around a shark's snout (Ampullae of Lorenzini) are their most sensitive parts. Therefore we've designed and developed The Biteback to help fend and fight off these apex predators and increase your odds of survival in an "investigation" or attack.

Who's it for?
The Biteback is applicable to surfing, swimming, diving/snorkeling, kitesurfing, SUPs, kayaking, fishing, water photographers, ocean rescue, and many more.
