Swell Reports — A flexible and personal way to surf forecasting.

1
•

A surf forcasting tool, that puts the exploration for spots back in the users hands. You set your own locations, and then with weather api's we're able to give you all the data you need to know to predict the surf. Hopefully this will help reduce crowding on one wave, as well as let surfers get data on their personal, secret spots.

Surfing has taken me all over the world looking for waves. I wanted to make a surf forecasting tool that keeps the adventurous side in it, and doesn't just draw crowds when it's good in one place. A while a go, one of my secret spots was published on a popular surf forecasting site and it changed it forever. Exploration is my favourite part of surfing, so Swell Reports is a tool for anyone else out there, who feels the same. I'd love some feedback on it, to make it as useful as possible and see if it makes sense. I'd love to add alerts to weather conditions that the user sets, specific to locations that they've picked (for example, if the wind speed and swell height are what they want, in a location - maybe even on day like the weekend) and later down the line have user accounts where friends can share spots between groups. Cheers Product Hunters! ✌️
