it's a bodyboarder paddling out, upright on his board, the splashing behind him is his fins. case solved.

good points. personally i don't think i care as much as you guys. someone's getting some juice by themselves that's all we really know about this!

You've never sat further up to relieve your back after being hunched over for so long?

I tend to agree with you there nhsurferman. Defo not bodyboarder, my first thoughts was that it was a standup just sat on their board.

At first glance I thought it was a bodyboarder as well. It looked clear to me that he was up on his elbows and kicking with his fins (which would explain his posture and the mini wake behind him). The more I look at it though the more I'm unsure. The wake/splashing seems too far behind him to be any normal sized person I know, then there is the issue of the board shadow being too long....so I don't kno....

its definitely not a bodyboarder, first of all because if that is a person he/she is sitting upright so they couldn't be splashing with their feet behind them. and that long dark shadow under the water is way to long to be a bodyboard. it looks more like a longboard to me. the more i look at it though the more questionable it becomes, personally I think that it is just a person sitting on their board possibly sitting on their board kind of weird or something like that. The only thing that is odd is that the nose of the board is not sticking up out of the water and if it is a person it looks like they are sitting way up on the nose of their board.

its really hard to tell, kind of a toss up but i would say that that is very possibly a fin, is does look a little small to be person

also look at the area in front of the object there is some splashing don't really know what that is? does anyone know?

Check out the other pic taken the same day. Waves were much bigger than this perspective shows...and the dark object here is probably the surfer shown in the other pic paddling out.

I tried to sharpen the pic on my computer... still looks like a fin to me...

well the wave looks about shoulder high....that would make that fin looking thing about waist high?

I thought it was a person at first, but now that I really look at it... hmmmm

I think that fin could be someone getting ready to paddle out...it seems like it would be a huge huge huggge shark if it was compared to the wave
