    It's A- kinda hard to take pics when standing on a shark. And 2- not a lot of people go surfing everyday and bring a camera.

    I've been bumped by a shark, it seems they are blind as bats. I was in the water, and he just swam smack into my leg. Then thrashed a bit, and took off.

    As did I.

    Sufer standing on a Great White or a Great White hauling a surfer ?
    That is the true question
    I see from here the chit chat at Great Whites annual gathering

    "you cannot keep a surfer on you back"
    "yes i can"
    "no you can"t"
    "yes i can. Let's bet"

    Yeah, when I'm fishing I see these guys out there, rain or shine and I'm just waiting to see a white belly roll over, the red mistand hear the scream. They've got bigger nuts than me. Here's some interesting reading: http://www.sharkresearchcommittee.co...shark_news.htm
    Lincoln City, OR On January 13, 2012 Steve Harnack was surfing at Nelscott Reef near Lincoln City, Oregon. The reef is approximately 0.5 miles offshore and creates a reef break with waves frequently 20 feet high. It was 10:00 AM and he had been on the water about 20 minutes. The sky was clear with an air temperature in the mid-40s Fahrenheit. Water temperature was approximately 48 degrees Fahrenheit with 15 – 20 feet of water visibility and a depth of 40 – 50 feet. There were two jet skis in the area assisting about 8 other surfers. No marine mammals were observed in the area. Harnack reported; “I had traveled beyond the reef about 200 yards by duck-diving through several waves about 20 feet high. I noticed my board dragging as I moved through the water. I had a jet-ski tow me back to the beach where I noticed a section on the bottom of my board had been struck by a shark. A portion of the fiber-glass had been removed and tooth impressions were also present.” Additional information, including photographs of the board's damage, will be posted when available in a few days. Please report any shark sighting, encounter, or attack to the Shark Research Committee.
