Video revealed the moment he was plucked from his surfboard by a Prestwick-based Coastguard helicopter crew.
In the footage, a crewman is winched down into the water as the aircraft nears the surfer before they are pulled back inside leaving the board behind.
A spokesman for the Ulster Hospital in Dundonald has told Sky News Mr Bryce is in a stable condition.
He was wearing a full wetsuit, which has been credited with saving his life, and had managed to stay with his board to keep him out of the water.
