You're in!

We'll be in touch when it's firing. Go wax up.

How it works

NOAA + Scripps-run CDIP buoy network, checked every 15 min. Your spot needs the right combination to even qualify.

Wind
Glassy. Maybe a little offshore. Maybe some texture. Nothing nuking. Wrong wind โ€” no alert.

Gate cleared โ€” wind is clean

Every spot has its ideal tide window. We check it's good now and stays good for the next 5 hours.

Founder pricing

The best surfers aren't the ones checking the most apps. They're the ones who know when to show up.

No push notifications to miss. No feed to scroll past. Just a text โ€” same as it's always worked.

"A frothing friend used to text me exactly this โ€” 'Dude, it's firing!' โ€” I built this so you can have that frothing friend too." โ€” Michael

Why it's different
No forecasts. Just alerts.

We are always watching, and know exactly when you should get wet.

โœ…๐Ÿ”ฅ
Direction Matters Every spot needs a specific swell angle to work. Wrong direction โ€” no alert.
โœ…๐Ÿ”ฅ
Shredding window maximized We check whether conditions will hold so when you get the alert you have time to get it!
โœ…๐Ÿ”ฅ
Surfline shows what might happen. We tell you it's happening. No dashboard. No app. No push notifications. No updates. No downloads. No worries โ€” When you get a text โ€” conditions are dialed right now.
We know what you're thinking.
Why do you need my phone number?
To text you when your spot is firing. One use. No advertising on SMS, no reason to sell your number.

Will you spam me?
No. We only alert when conditions are genuinely good โ€” that's it!

Can I stop any time?
Yes. Every text has a one-tap unsubscribe link. No login, no account, gone in seconds.
When will I get my first alert?
Depends on your spots and the season โ€” anywhere from days to a few weeks. We never cry wolf: better a real alert late than a fake one now.
What if conditions are flat for weeks?
It happens โ€” surf is seasonal. But that's exactly the point. When you DO get a text from us, you know it's worth dropping everything and going. Zero false alarms means every alert is real.

Is that really all it costs?
Yes. One payment, once a year. No monthly billing, no hidden fees. About $0.06 per alert โ€” how much is an amazing surf session worth?
