One Score.
Every Condition.

Wave height, wind speed, swell direction, tide, and swell period — weighted for your skill level. Epic is rare; Good means go.

What Goes Into Your Score

Epic is rare by design.

Wave Size Fit
How closely the current surf matches the size you actually want to ride.
Swell Angle
Whether the swell is arriving from a direction that works for that spot.
Swell Power
Longer-period, cleaner swell usually scores better than weak or mixed surf.
Wind & Tide
Offshore wind helps, onshore hurts, and some spots care more about tide than others.
Reality Checks
Storms, strong onshore, underpowered surf, or conditions too heavy for your level can cap the score.

Born from a missed dawn patrol in Clearwater

Our co-founder got tired of waking up at 5 AM only to find blown-out slop. So we built the app he wished existed — one that tells you whether it's worth getting out of bed. No VC funding, no investor pressure, no overpriced subscriptions.
