Built from the sea floor up.

Seafloor mapping
Satellite-derived bathymetry with 10 m pixels and 10 cm vertical resolution out to ~40 m depth. The shape of the seabed is what determines where and how waves break.
National met-office wind models
Most apps run a single global model at 9–25 km. We blend regional NWP from national meteorological offices at 1.3–2 km — UK Met Office UKV, Météo-France AROME HD, ItaliaMeteo ICON-2I — with ECMWF IFS for the 8-day horizon. Finer resolution means the sea breeze, cliff funnelling and bay shadowing that changes everything for a session.
Coastal propagation
A nearshore wave model propagates the spectrum across the bathymetric mesh — modelling refraction, shoaling, dissipation, focusing and breaking as it goes. Most apps stop at swell + wind. We go further.
Per-sport scoring
10 sport models × 4 ability levels weight wave height, period, wind, tide and breaking conditions differently — calibrated against ridden sessions so the scores mean what they say.
In context.
A vast, wind-blasted white-sand beach in a protected natural park, centred on a tide-filled turquoise lagoon behind a sandbar. Inside, water is flat and sandy, suited to beginner windsurfing/kitesurfing; outside the sandbar, small upwind waves of 1-2m form. Reliable NE trade winds support an annual windsurf/kite World Cup. At low tide the lagoon empties, limiting rideable windows to a few hours. An on-site centre runs a rescue boat/jet-ski for its clients.
