There is a study on the web indicating that between 93 and 97 a total of 17 drownings occurred in the entire state of Hawaii while Surfing or bodyboarding. One could assume that most deaths while surfing would involve drowning, thus it would seem that this study can give us a good idea of the surfing related deaths per year at or near 4, at least during the stated time period; chances are it is not a lot higher now.

Statistics are difficult to compile, but 214 fatalities are attributed to shark attacks in Australian waters between the years of 1580 and 2007 (See link). Surfers also run the risk of drowning, while unconscious from head trauma inflicted by falling off of their boards. The deaths of surfers that could be attributed to automobile wrecks, strokes, and heart attacks remain uncompiled.
One statistic is 2.38 surfers in 100K die each year, mostly due to rip tides. In Australia, this amounts to an average of 21 deaths per year.
