Do you get Spinners down your way? Check out the video after the link...these sharks (7-9 feet long) go airborne near surfers from time to time. Said to be harmless. Do you have jumpers like this?

My own thought is that if a shark this big jumps anywhere near me, I don't think I'd have the presence of mind to try and identify the species.
Add a kiter to this and you could have yourself one big yo-yo.
Had a small bull shark (it looked like a bull shark anyway) jump out of the water last year at Burrum Heads but nothing like that video.
I doubt we would have the same sharks as you guys because I recently saw a documentary on Seabreeze that said sharks are only found in two places on earth - the northern and southern hemispheres![]()
Leaping bull sharks? Yikes.

You gotta watch those whites, they'll chew on your prop and make the trip home a long one!![]()
As for flying sharks...Makos and threshers go nuts, but I've only seen them jump whilst hooked.
