Officials said Donald Walsh, 40, was bitten just before noon at New Smyrna Beach, WFTV-TV reported.
He was bitten on the left hand and leg after he caught a wave, jumped off his board and landed on the shark in waist-deep water, officials said.
Walsh was treated on the beach for the bites and refused transportation to a hospital.
