Jason Lasser
Singer Island, Florida
On a downwinder from Singer Island, crossing the Palm Beach inlet, kiteboarder Jason Lasser collided with what he believes was a Spinner shark.
We were both cruising along, minding our own business and simply didn’t see each other. Absolutely no hard feelings, I hope he/she is OK (that’s one hard head they’ve got). Very impressed with how solid and stable it was in the water – I thought I hit concrete even though I was on an 8-10ft swell that was about to break, 100 yards from the shore.
Mr. Lasser's right foot required surgery to repair nerves, tendons and a nasty laceration.
