Surfline sucks

[wydopen]

just to let you guys know that already dont..please dont plan your rides using Surflines near shore surf height forecasts...they are not very accurate...for example: yesterday Brett (a board member) was discouraged by Surflines ankle to knee high and poor condition forecast for our area..he didnt come down thinking it was flat..well i check the BUOYS and could see there in fact was some waves...turned out it was shoulder high, sunny and hollow..dosnt get any more fun than that..so do your homework, dont rely on a crappy website..:biggthumpup:

you're almost better off looking for a surf cam in the area...

www.swellinfo.com has worked well for me but I check bouys too.

I have to agree, I can't rely on Surfline anymore. They give Shi**y surf reports. I think they want to keep people away so they can have the surf to themselves.
Derick recently gave me this site: http://www.wetsand.com/

He says it's more accurate. we'll see.....

this is the most accurate..just find the closest buoy to you..no b.s. no ads just info

:spankme:

its not hard at all..gives you swell height and intervals..thats all you need..plus it gives you a detailed wind summary

and it gives you a detailed wave summary so you can see if its building/dropping etc etc
