None of the shots show the shark's mouth open so I have to assume it was launching for pure style points. I'd give a 8.2 on a 10 pt scale.

Yep - for real

Spinner sharks are super common in Fl - my buddy Ralph was getting a dawn patrol solo session and a 7 footer blasted out and landed so close the spray hit him.

Sweet!

I wonder if they are slippery enough to do a rail slide on them.
