Inflatable Life-Size Shark Replica Teaches Kids About Nature
Life-Size Inflatable Shark Replica Teaches Kids About Friendly Sharks
Thanks to the sister-and-brother team of Laura and Rob Sams, Sisbro Studios has given sharks their own ambassador. Devoted to teaching kids about nature, Sisbro Studios has produced films and created educational events that have appeared nationwide.
In conjunction with their most recent Shark Days film, they commissioned a life-size shark replica from Landmark Creations.
This 23-foot-long basking shark gives students and adults the feeling of what it's like to stand beside one of these massive animals. But have no fear! Even if this shark were not inflatable, there would be no danger. Basking sharks are completely harmless to humans with mouths designed exclusively to eat plankton.
"[The inflatable life-size shark replica] is portable enough to be shown anywhere from schools and libraries to larger museums, zoos and aquariums," states Sisbro-owner Rob Sams.
"While promoting an educational tour, credibility is key to opening the door of some major educational institutions (ex. the Monterey Bay Aquarium). This inflatable basking shark has helped put an exclamation point on my credibility as a science educator and presenter. I have used this inflatable shark in pitch meetings with various large aquariums, and they are always impressed by the awe-factor of this [life-size shark replica]."
Experience, competitive pricing, attention to detail and turnaround time were just a few of the things that led Rob to Landmark. Our willingness to make mid-project adjustments in order to get the shark just right cemented the relationship.
It is always fun to bring something that kids might not otherwise get to see to life right before their eyes.

“The inflatable finish arch looked fantastic! Local media was also there filming, so photos and videos of our race were viewed by many with our logo front and center.”
- David Parker, Pacific Road Runners Club
"Our tunnel was also a great addition to our pre-game tradition: the Wildcat walk. Our city shuts down three blocks of downtown, and we have hundreds of fans lining the streets with a police escort, while we walk to the stadium."
- Sam Baker, Head Football Coach at Waconia High School
“This has created tremendous buzz around town and we have received a great deal of compliments on the Big Tire. Exposure is my goal, and the inflatable does that better than anyone, including me, can do at these events. The Big Tire never takes a break, gets tired or has to take a call. It just keeps shining bright and the kids love it.”
- Ed Chaney, Ed Chaney Tire Center Inc.
"Since they were purchased, these Sonic areas have attracted a great deal of attention when using the cup at the store or at special events in the community. [...] You have been excellent to do business with, always letting us know about any special deals and shipping the items quickly so we can start putting them to work. I appreciate your attention to our group of Sonics and for handling your business in a very professional manner, always delivering any information I need when making a decision. Here is a special thanks, with a "cherry on top."
- Mason-Harrison, Jarrard Enterprises
“The setup is so easy. We have had event tents and other promotional items in the past that were a nightmare to set up and break down. The inflatable is now the easiest part of the setup, and probably the most identifiable.”
- Vaughan Cutillo, Montauk Brewing Company
