It may hide you from sharks, but it attracts amorous zebras!

I quite like the design - hmm but that's not really the point, it is.

There's also a nice blue one in case black and white is not your thing.

I think there is an arguable case for surfers wearing helmets; or at least wearing them more often than is usual (eg: if its crowded, if the waves are larger, if you are riding a big heavy board like a LB). But hardly any do because, I suspect, its not the 'done thing' and people feel conspicuous and perhaps a bit kooky.
I suspect the shark wetsuit might be a bit similar.
That said, you probably need the design on your board rather than the wetsuit, and a nice black and white striped board wouldnt look too bad.

I don't think I would wear that. Having said that.... Surfing isn't a fashion parade (much as many kooks think so).
Not much call for shark suits in the UK though

No but we do have the more dangerous pastime just the same as you guys. Driving to the beach in your car to go surfing.

To be fair, it was a
scottish shark, so it probably lost interest when it realised the fisherman's shoe wasn't full of McEwan's Special Brew or Buckfast
