My New Favorite Surfing Tools and Equipment

I'm really liking the Magic Seaweed surf report page and iPhone App. The reports and forecasts have been more accurate than those from Surfline here in Costa and the pages and app load more quickly and with fewer crashes. I'm hoping it's as good for California. Plus, the five day forecast is and app are both free.

Stormrider Symbols for Malibu 

Another new toy is the Stormrider iPhone App also have always liked Stormrider Guides. I own two of their world surf guides, which include beautiful photography and lots of travel information. They've taken the key surf break descriptions and their distinctive, informative map symbols (showing Wave Range, Swell Angle, Break Type, Ideal Tide, and Ideal Wind Direction) and combined all that with Magic Seaweed forecasts to create an application that gives map, description, and surf prediction all in one very easy to use format.

Finally, I'm really glad I bought and brought the Body Glove Lycra Rash Guard Shorts. They've completed solved the problem of inner thigh rash (not to mention the even more private rash I've been getting in the tropics!).
