On Wednesday Mick Fanning joined the Tassie locals at thumping Shipsterns Bluff. Just over a month after his close call at Jeffreys Bay, Fanning dropped into the jaws of Shippies and made good his escape.
Not so lucky was Tyler Hollmer-Cross, the unlucky punter going over the falls in XXL style.

Now anywhere Mick Fanning surfs is deemed shark infested waters. The ledge that wave has is far more deadly!
I think Matt Lee, Craig Ibsen, the (deceased) Tassie diver and countless others would beg to differ.
PS where's the 'north coast shark' dispatch got to?
