Been using cflsurf pretty much from day one. I'm not opposed to change but I really liked the fact that all the links were compact and accessible without having to scroll a lot, especially on a mobile device.

Ditto and agree.
Good to update, and all the info is still there...
... just not as "friendly" looking.

Looks good! Much cleaner. Organized forecast now too. Gonna miss the little sarcastic rants he'd occasionally have. The "flat" reports would Always make me laugh.

Who moved my cheese!


Look I hate when people redesign websites for the sake of making it look more modern but make it functionaly garbage. This site looks better and is still functional. Give it a chance.

I like the day by day wave forecast better than Ross's old rambling paragraph that was always two shades more negative than anybody elses. It seems someone else is doing the reports or Ross has started on Prosac. j/k

Don't care for the more stretched out report page on my phone.

I personally am not mad at it one bit, it STILL looks great.

And I believe ALL forecasters "under-call" it, just to avoid all of the haters coming back at them sideways if it wasn't "6' foot glass" (as it is actually forecasted to be tomorrow)..

I thank you Mr. Ross, Mr. Freeman, AND Mr. Wavecaster for your local knowledge and amazingly helpful insight to help me make my decisions on when to use or not use my vacation time to go surf. As a weekend warior, these forecast are like pretty much THE BOMB!!

Highly appreciated Sir's!

Tide info actually has the height of the tide which is nice.  It makes a difference.

Well we do have those who consistently overcall it unless you know the "secret sandbar".

Yes, that drone report is #nextlevel that has to be some work though and take some effort.

I like the new format. (reminds me I need to update my page).

At the very bottom of the new report you can find the Original Site. And on there it says that the surf report will stay on the new site but the Original will be updated otherwise.
