(ABC7News)—A close call for a surfer after a shark bit his board in Montara on Saturday.
Surfer Jens Heller says he paddled out along the San Mateo County coast, and hadn’t even caught a wave yet when he felt something hit his foot and knock him off his board.
“I looked back and then saw this big mouth grabbing onto my board, and then it bit I guess, like here, and then also on this side you can see the mouth here,” he said. “I just remember being in the water, looking back, seeing this black eye and the teeth of the shark, and then I just tried to grab my board as fast as possible and come back in.”
Other surfers told him the shark was about 10 feet long.
