About Lazy Surfer

"I had a magical session in April 2019 - just a few guys out, consistent head-high waves peeling down a point, smiles from ear-to-ear. I knew that I needed to do everything I could to increase the chances of a session like that happening again - that’s why I built Lazy Surfer."

- Nick Peterson, Lazy Surfer Founder

Lazy Surfer remembers the conditions of your surf sessions and alerts you when the conditions are similar to your best sessions. Furthermore, it includes a forecast so you can plan ahead and a personalized prediction model that learns the kind of waves that you prefer.

This app is excellent because once you start to log data, you can see when conditions are the way you like them. ...This is a personal way to get insights into when conditions are good—-based on your own input and data. It’s a great way to use the data that comes off the buoys and put it all in a place where it is presentable and user friendly. Hope to be using this one for a long time!!

Such a clever approach! You simply tag your favorite sessions and LazySurfer analyzes all the data (wind, tide, swell, etc) to alert you when similar conditions are coming! All app developers should take inspiration from this human approach to data analysis.

Indispensible app for surfing! Makes it super easy to log all of the conditions of every session. The alerts are great too, they let me know when I need to leave work early, or just call in sick altogether 😁.

An awesome idea for an app. Being a California native, I can see the value in knowing when your favorite surf spots are approaching good conditions.

How Lazy Surfer Works

The key to Lazy Surfer is the Similarity Score - this describes how close the current or future conditions are to the conditions you've saved. When the score is close to ten then the conditions should be similar. When it's close to zero, the conditions are very different.

Save Session

After each session fill in the spot name, a description and a rating.

Buoy Data

Lazy Surfer will retrieve and save condition information from the closest wind, wave, and tide buoys.

Surf Better Waves

Use the Similarity Score to find the best time and place to surf.
