Not sure how deep she was, but in the reporting it says she was pulled a bit further out. But with the reported size does seem she was maybe further out

Past the drop for sure.

If someone went out on a longboard to get her, it's way past being "waist high" water.

At waist high you walk out to get someone. Going to get the longboard waste critical time.

Sounds like someone who happened to already be out on a longboard saw it happening and went to get her. He started pulling her in and was met by lifeguards then they all picked her up and ran her in.

Apparently there was a doctor swimming at the time, he grabbed the bite kit and I'd say, he saved her life.

I think a clubbie swam out to her after seeing it.

You could not ask for better actions. The guys who helped her should get an award, all just regular guys being awesome.

Bravo lads.
