  1. Metal pins are used and this barrier is reinforced with wire to make it stronger!! High risk!!!!? How does it get the “Eco” barrier name? It is plastic wire and metal!!!!surely this is a risk to those in the water as it breaks down as expected in extreme weather conditions strong rips & ocean currents and also wave actions & winds. I cannot understand how this barrier does not pose a dangerous risks to our children youth who surf and dolphins and other marine life!
