Swell Diary is Live!

I'm a keen surfer and lucky to live near one of the worlds surfing epicenters - the Gold Coast in Australia.

After going surfing I'd regularly get home and see YouTube videos from the exact day and break of my session. That inspired me to create Swell Diary.

There are hundreds of raw, daily surf videos uploaded to YouTube each month but I wanted to organise them in to a historical archive in a diary like format. The videos are also organised by break and region.

In the future I'd like to create maps and visualisations of when swells and posting activity increase and build community features like tagging the days and breaks you surf to create your own personal surf diary.

If you enjoy surfing and surf videos, I hope you like the site. Let me know what you'd like to see and what I can build next?
