Sharks ( men in grey suits ) - 2007/03/09 00:26Just thinking of ordering new custom board and thinking about sprayjobs and got to wondering, are bright colours going to attract unwanted attention from bellow ? call me paranoid-but if im surfing in spots prone to attacks shouldnt I not take every possible precaution ? maybe a big evil eye, or just plain blue ? is there any statistics on the colour of boards people were riding when taken by the men in the grey suits and if so is there any colour that repels ?

Re:Sharks ( men in grey suits ) - 2007/03/09 00:38I saw somewhere that a guy from hawaii analysed colors that won't attract sharks. He created a sticker that looks like a fish that the skarks won't bite. May be he has a website, shearch on google if you can find something.
