YOU SKI HARD.
SOMETIMES
THE MOUNTAIN BITES BACK.
SharkAid is developing a tougher DIY repair solution for serious ski-base damage and core shots.
GOOD GEAR DESERVES ANOTHER LAP.
Rocks are part of freeriding. Writing off your skis doesn't have to be.
Good skis earn favourite-pair status for a reason. A core shot shouldn't be what retires them.

Everything is a matter of perspective…
P-TEX KEEPS FALLING OUT.
Deep gouges. Core shots. Repairs that don't stay repaired.
We know the feeling. You were pretty proud of that repair — right up until it fell out.
Serious damage needs a repair you can trust — not one you have to keep redoing.

WE GOT SICK OF REPAIRS THAT DON'T LAST.
SO WE STARTED ENGINEERING A BETTER ONE.
We're developing SharkAid around a simple idea: serious ski repairs should be tough, straightforward to do yourself, and leave your skis feeling like they did before the incident.
HERE'S WHAT WE'RE AIMING FOR.
01 / STAYS PUT.
Because who wants to fix the same core shot again and again?
02 / EASY DIY.
No workshop. No expensive specialist tools. Just a straightforward repair you can do yourself.
03 / CHARGE ON.
Because as far as we're concerned, “repaired” means the ski skis like it did before the incident.
We're developing SharkAid with hard skiing, glide, and base maintenance in mind.
AND IF WE CAN KILL THE SCRAPING? EVEN BETTER.
We're testing whether we can substantially reduce the scraping needed after a repair.
EXPERIMENTAL / CURRENTLY TESTING
TESTED LIKE WE DON'T TRUST OURSELVES.
Anyone can say their product works. We'd rather prove ours does.
From controlled testing to ripping laps from first to last chair, we're building the evidence before we build the claims.
CURRENT
STAGE
01 / LAB
MEASURE, DON'T GUESS.
Controlled tests. Meaningful comparisons. Real numbers. We want to know how SharkAid performs — and where its limits are.
02 / MOUNTAIN
RIP IT.
Lab tests only tell you so much. The real proving ground is on snow — skiing hard and finding out whether repairs hold up to the conditions they were built for.
03 / PEOPLE
LET REAL FREERIDERS PUT IT TO THE TEST.
Ultimately, SharkAid has to work for you too — not just for us. As part of our development process, we'll put SharkAid in the hands of real freeriders to find out if it's as straightforward to use and as dependable in the real world as we're aiming for.
CLAIMS WILL FOLLOW EVIDENCE.
