Since its inception in the 1990s, Surfline has gone from a popular website that surfers use to forecast to being the only option for surf forecasting in the market. But now they suck at it.

Whether you’re planning on surfing Pipeline on the north shore of O’ahu or Lower Trestles in San Clemente, you’re undoubtedly going to be checking Surfline before you go out. Surfline allows you to check the swell (height and time interval in between waves), tide, wind and water temperature. 

Yet, the information that most surfers will focus on is the wave height measurement and conditions, which Surfline assigns to various breaks across the world.

Unfortunately, since Surfline’s recent AI integration with their “LOTUS” model, the wave height measurement has become wildly inaccurate and possibly hazardous.
