A surfer's morning routine turned into a near-death encounter at Cabarita Beach on Monday when a suspected juvenile Great White shark bit through his surfboard while he was still sitting on it.

According to reports, Brad Ross, a resident of the town, was surfing just after 8 am when the shark struck. 'It's just grazed his leg, mouth has just gone over his thigh and like got the board,' witness Grace Shaw told 7NEWS. Ross escaped with minor injuries, managing to paddle back to shore with a shattered board.
