4 out of 5 paddlers say they've felt vulnerable in waters shared by predators.
Encounters with sharks, alligators, and aggressive wildlife aren’t just rare headlines—they’re a real risk for paddlers navigating oceans, rivers, and remote waters.
These aren’t rare stories. This is real.
WHØA! It Got Wild—Fast
WHAT & WHY?
The WHØA Paddle Spear is designed as a safety tool for paddleboarders and kayakers who explore remote or unpredictable environments, where encounters with predators, aggressive wildlife—or other unexpected threats may occur. Its purpose is not to provoke or harm, but to deter or thwart an aggressive interaction if one arises.
Predators in the water aren’t usually looking for a fight—they’re looking for prey. Sharp, sudden stimuli can confuse or startle a predator just enough to deter an attack. This is the same logic behind shark spines, urchin barbs, and other natural defenses.
Studies and anecdotal evidence suggest that sharp objects can be effective in deterring sharks and other marine threats. Whether it's divers and spearfishermen fending off sharks or surfers using spiked attachments, one thing is clear: it’s better to have a sharp option than nothing at all.
WHØA Paddle Spear gives paddlers an option that is safe, practical, and confidence-boosting—without adding bulk or altering stroke. Paddle with peace of mind, knowing you have a built-in line of defense right in your hand.
