Just Maui. Windsurfing didn't exist when I lived on Kauai.

magentawave, did you windsurf on Kauai too, or just Maui?

Krikeee!!!
They are saying there were two sharks.
Maybe Mick will go fulltime sup. Not sure how much competition he would have in our arena.

Yowza!
Thanks for the links Kaya and Weasel.....

Pretty lucky to get past that moment without a nick.
The fin looked like it hit him pretty good on the cheekbone in the second vid

When it's that close they all look big! Was out yesterday at a spot with a reputation six short boarders next to a big river mouth jetty my buddy and I about 75 yards down in some big beach break bombs between worring about being caught inside and the landlord , I had no problem staying warm. You kinda have to lay off of these spots during the start of salmon season.

Certainly better than without a Mick.


It was scary enough seeing him drop out of sight behind the wave, and that was watching a video, already knowing he ended up safe.  Can't imagine what that was like for the people there seeing it unfold--let alone Mick Fanning of course.
