" Sharkcamo was created based on the scientific fact that Mother Nature protects certain species of animals with distinct coloration patterns. The technical name for this phenomenon is symbiosis.
Examples of coloration imitation on land are the Monarch and Viceroy butterfly and coral and king snake. Several species of fish share a distinct striped pattern and are not prey items for sharks. In the documentary "Smile of the Shark", shark experts proved Tiger sharks would not eat striped poles filled with fish. After viewing this film, the quest to find a graphic that could be applied to the bottom of surfboards began. The end result was the Zebra or fingerprint design. We found this graphic offers the best protection from different angles of attack.
Sharkcamo has been tested by thousands of surfers worldwide for the past 5 years with impeccable results. Our graphic imitates the pattern Mother Nature has decorated certain fish with that are seen side by side with sharks in all water conditions and times of the day.
Sharkcamo is a low tech approach to preventing shark attacks on surfers. Taken from the principles of Mother Nature, Sharkcamo is a patented copyrighted graphic that applies to the bottom of your surf board and helps neutralize the prey reflex found in sharks that cause them to attack."

uhh, symbiosis is what?
"Symbiosis simply means "living together" and in its narrowest form can mean two species deriving mutual benefit from the association."
