(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 17, 2014 ) Redding, California -- John Rood, CEO at Survival Tek, was working himself to death with 12 hour shifts 6 days a week, leaving no time for his family or friends. One day, caught in class 5 rapids, in the Sacramento River, he was sucked into an undercurrent that pinned him under a rock. John describes, "After being pummeled for over a minute underwater, blackness started to close in. I saw my life flash before my eyes. I saw my family and thought 'where was the love?

this. With everything I had left, I managed to reach the surface, and held on to a branch for dear life. I quit my job that month, and haven't lived the same since."
Realizing his need to be an influence in the world rather than just live in it, John has since, created Survival Tek and spent more time with his family. The goal behind Survival Tek is to compel people to experience something amazing. "Thousands of people have this gift, but most go their entire life without realizing it," John says to explain his company's compelling nature. "Your friends that go backpacking, camping, hiking, or just enjoy the scenery around them, they've already figured it out." The company has high hopes for creating desire within people to go out and experience the outdoors; to create gear that inspires people to release their frustrations and stress in the wild.
Survival Tek just launched this January of 2014. They believe that with innovative, high quality products, they will make big wake in the outdoor industry. The first innovation coming to the market is called the Survival Flint. The flint has a Magnesium alloy rod which creates sparks of over 5,000 degrees. However, the innovative edge of this flint lies in the compass and whistle, seamlessly integrated in the handle. John believes that the combination of the compass for direction, flint for fire, and ability to alert for rescue makes this flint, "the ultimate survival tool." With Survival Tek's vision and passion for the outdoors, it will be exciting to see the innovations to come!
