Shark upstages surfer with perfect ‘el rollo’ just beyond lineup

A surfing publication on Thursday shared footage showing a hydrofoil surfer being video-bombed by a leaping shark.

The footage shows Adam Bennetts artfully carving turns at Australia’s Wategos Beach when the shark leaped free of the surface and spun just beyond the lineup.

“Who do you think got the highest score? Bennetts asked via Instagram. “That el rollo from the shark was pretty sick.”

The footage, accompanied by the tune Reggae Shark, was captured in July by Ben Tayler. Surfer featured the clip Thursday.

Wategos Beach is in Byron Bay, New South Wales.
