Shark Leap (Combat) Source Aquatic Adventures pg. 58 Like a deadly predator, you bolt at unsuspecting foes from below. Prerequisites: Improved Unarmed Strike, Shark Style, Shark Tear, Swim 10 ranks, base attack bonus +10 or monk level 10th. Benefit: While in Shark Style, when you’re underwater with neutral, rising, or swiftly rising buoyancy, you can perform a terrifying leap to attack opponents directly above you. This works similarly to the charge action, except you can move only straight up, and you make a single piercing unarmed strike or bite attack. If the attack hits, it deals double damage; if the attack roll’s result is also higher than 11 + the target’s Swim modifier, the attack knocks the target off-balance until its next turn. Like with a charge, you can perform a partial version when limited to a single standard action (such as in the surprise round); in addition to moving half as far as normal for a partial charge, the attack doubles only the damage dice (as per Vital Strike) rather than the full damage roll.
