Being that it so rare for shark bites, do you think it might have to do with a kiteboarder almost appearing as a top surface fishing lure? Kinda scary.

The surfer attack theory is that they may look similar to a seal from the sharks vantage point--I guess that may hold true for kiteboards as well. Sucks for that guy and his friends and fam.

yeah thats a bummer! condolences to his family and friends. from what I have heard its the first attack on a kiter by shark? crazy that it was fatal.

Jas I know I have felt like chum dragging across the top of the water getting back to my board after losing it trying not to freak out cause I was in great white territory! but its always in the back of your head. like Jer said your in their environment.

on that note THANK GOD FOR OUR BLESSED MOTHER!

AMEN, BROTHER! THANK GOD FOR THE MOTHER. Pam says I'll have to throw away my teriyaki flavored sun screen. I guess the aerial photos show a swarm of fins off-shore that day. I hope they're done munching before vacation time.
