Best app available I've only had my iPhone the last few months, but this has undoubtedly become the most useful app I have. I've read other reviews which state that it doesn't have tide info, but every break I've checked it for has had comprehensive tide info, and I live in OC and surf LA and SD a lot. So perhaps, those reviews were written concerning an earlier version or the people writing them have trouble scrolling down? Don't know, but anyway, thanks to Surfline and Oakley for what I feel is the best app available, free or otherwise. If you surf and own an iPhone, then this is a must have.

Great app with almost everything a surfer needs! Cannot tell you how helpful this app is! Beats checking surfline or my other favorite surf reporting sites from my iphone. A couple of things are missing that would make it a 5 star; High/Low tide info and Video Streams.

Has me wishing for Summer I have Surf Report configured to show me the current beach conditions at our annual vacation spot. I look at it and smile each time I think about going to the beach. It would be nice to have station cams.

Really useful This is a super useful app. The favorites page makes it easy to check my local & daydream breaks in one shot. It would be nice to access longer range forecasting, maybe for a pay version.

Moi, je sais rien
Perfect app but for 3 small things Obviously this was a much anticipated app. Does what you want, which is gives you the reports! Beautiful UI. My only 3 complaints are:1. Does not provide tide info, which is so key its not funny. Why this was omitted I have no idea. I mean they have all the data you could want including sunrise/sunset info but no tide info? 2. It's somewhat of a performance hog and feels slow when using it. I assume that this is due to the 100% customization of the the UI (which, once again, is beautiful) but performance definitely needs to be taken into account in 1.1. Through much of the app you end up touching things twice because you think your first touch didn't register when it's actually just "thinking" for a second. Key mantra for iphone apps is the "feel" of the app. Any good development team can take a que for Apple's native apps in that they trade speed for performance IE: an app may take a certain amount of time to do something, but to the touch it never feels slow.3. Also, can we do some background loading? I have 4 spots and I think that they should load in the background so I can quickly thumb through them. Kinda annoying to look at a spot, look at another, and then come back to the first spot and it has to reload the data again. When I'm out surfing I'm on edge/3g so as much background loading and caching of report data as possible is key. Its safe to assume that majority of the app use will not be on WI-FI.Even though that sounds like a long list of complaints it's purely creative criticism. This app is so key to a surfer. One of those apps that would make a surfer switch to an iphone just to have. Great 1.0 and looking forward to 1.1. Excellent work Oakley. P.S. You can't argue with the price :-) - Surf Report review by edditInc
Love it here in NorCal and it's nice to see what's heading our way! Awesome application. Oakley always a class act. Killer products. - Surf Report review by oldschoolerskatemom
Stoked. Thank you Surfline&Oakley Thank you Surfline and Oakley for giving away this app, it's terrific.
One Big Bummer: I see tide info for only 1 of my fav locations - This is a feature which should Not have been overlooked and should be fully integrated into the app.
One Small Bummer: and I do feel greedy about complaining at all since this app really is so stellar for the price; the app loads a bit slow, a few times I started to question if it was crashing because it took so long to load data.
Kinda fun being able to access News.
Thanks again, this surfing mom is stoked to have this on her iPhone - Now go write the code so we can all have Tide Info ; - ) - Surf Report review by Anonmom
And its Free!! This is an amazing app, gives you all the info you need except for what boardies to wear! Would love to see more beaches in Australia added in the future. - Surf Report review by Kris182
Perfect before hitting the waves I check this almost every time before I hit the waves - Surf Report review by nedarb

Just what I needed I can't wait for summer to hits these parts so I can use this more. I will save me from having to go to multiple sites to get this info. Interface is well done as well. - Surf Report review by majorgearhead
Brilliant Great app, pinpoints your location via gps, or you can pick your spots manually. Shows water temp, wave height, even future forecast. Brilliant. - Surf Report review by lowryjd
