Can anyone tell me the color and brand of fins Greg
Pickering was wearing when he was attacked and injured by the pointer shark off the coast in Australia.....a while ago?
 
It was a bronze whaler that attacked him in 2004, 5 miles northwest of Cervantes, Western Australia. Sorry, can't help on the footwear though.
 
Knowing Greg he would have been wearing a set of Green ( or black maybe ) Picassos or Escalapes ( spelling? )

Dont think the fins had anything to do with it, just the shark caught him out
( happens to the best )
He is O.K but has a couple of decent scars to show for it.

I was in the water with him about 10 weeks ago and we had a 8 foot Mako take a couple of runs at us, didnt fluster him one bit just pushed him away with his gun.

He is one cool customer

Crusty
 
Esclapez :). That's a weird-looking word, to be sure.
