Surfline's LOLA Swell Model is the ONLY global swell model that can separate individual swells to accurately calculate surf heights for any location on Earth. Every surf spot will only have a limited range of swells that produce good surf at that location. Compare the LOLA swell forecast with a spot's "Optimal Conditions" information and your own local knowledge to score the best surf.
The "Swell Rose" above is the only one of it's kind in the world. This shows the directions of all the incoming swells
(N=0° East=90° etc). If you mouse over the swell rose you can see detailed raw numbers of the underlying swells.
US Weather data comes from the WeatherUnderground array of personal weather stations. Data is near realtime. International weather comes from LOLAs high resolution models or WUG where possible.
Tides are generated using the most excellent Xtide system.

Making the Drop - self-actualization through surfing, is a service combining world class surfing instruction and life coaching launched by Santa Cruz based surfer and coach Barry Green. The vision for Making the Drop is to support clients in developing the capacity and skill to see themselves and the world in a new light through the practice of surfing. While almost any activity or pursuit can serve as a "practice" for personal development and growth, surfing is in a class all by itself. It is pure improvisation, an open-ended invitation to be in the moment, transcend limitations and glide through life with more grace, style, poise and power. Visit http://www.makingthedrop.com for more info to set up an initial consultation today.
