It’s every surfer’s worst nightmare…an encounter with a shark!
I like hanging out on stand-up paddleboards (SUP), I like skim boarding, and even surfing every chance I get….(even though I need a lotta work when it comes to surfing) And no matter what, whenever I’m out on the water or just in the ocean….the thought always crosses my mind: “I wonder if there’s a shark around here…?”
Well, there are. I’ve seen my share of ’em, and you just have to accept the fact that when you enter the ocean, you’re in their element….not yours.
Check out this video of a SUP surfer and a spinner shark “meeting” that was filmed in Jupiter, Florida recently. (CAUTION: Video is uncensored! You’ll hear a four letter word or two)
If it happened to me…..it would be time for a “cold one” or two or three on the beach….
