Founder Duncan Wood stepped onto the carpet in Season 11, Episode 7 in the episode that aired 26 January 2014. Big Waves, the led face mask, pitched in the Other category, one of 902 other businesses to brave the Den across all 21 seasons.

The ask was £100,000 for 20% of the company, an implied valuation of £500K.

No deal. Every dragon declined, and Big Waves walked. But a Dragons’ Den appearance reaches millions of viewers whether or not a check gets written, and plenty of no-deal companies have turned that airtime into lasting businesses.

Season 11 saw 67 pitches, and 15 of them closed a deal on air. In the Other category overall, roughly 11% of pitches have landed a dragon across the show's history.
