This was a 3 hour kiteboard trek from Lanikai to Kahala, but a few unexpected events happened along the way... such as a shark jumping out of the water while I was a mile offshore. For more great videos, check out www.Kiting.com

  • 4 minutes and 14 seconds is when the shark appeared. I actually saw it coming up for a of couple seconds before what is seen on this video. Once I saw the shark coming up, I figured it might be a good time to turn on my carmera

  • dude,....mirror? why not let the coast guard know and let a friend or someone know where you are heading? basic safety. nice vid.

  • u wudnt wanna drop your kite out there man

  • Kiteboarders seem like prime targets for human/shark encounter, even more so than surfers and boogie boarders. They're far enough from shore to be near feeding territories and their appearance, motions and speed, as seen from beneath the surface, makes them indistinguishable from food (seals, fish, etc). Shark sees a fast moving dark figure and then attacks. Sadly, many attacks begin from deep beneath surface as shark swims/shoots upwards like a torpedo. Boarders wouldn't even know what hit them

  • @ShawnyMartin wooo!!

  • OH FUCK THERES A SHARK

  • Really cool. Keep up the videos. Was it shot on a Hero HD?
