you ride?
Live coastal sensors, tomorrow's forecast and a seven-day twin-tip plan using three weather models. One practical answer: when to ride, which spot to choose and which kite to take.

YOUR WINDOW
Twin tip.
Today or later.
One clear scenario: twin-tip riding. Set your weight and level; for the seven-day plan choose a 7, 9, 12, 15 or 17 m² kite. Free and no sign-up required.

CALCULATING
Finding the best spot
Comparing available modelsBefore travelling: data freshness · shore direction · gusts · camera · access/rescue · equipment and a riding partner.
The size is guidance for a typical freeride kite. Check your model's published wind range, actual shore conditions and instructor judgement; offshore wind lowers the score regardless of strength.
What does the index mean, and why does it stop at 96?+
This is a condition-fit index, not a probability percentage and not a safety guarantee.
- 42% — wind strength fit
- 27% — shore direction fit
- 13% — gust stability
- 13% — agreement across three models
- 5% — precipitation
With a selected kite, the planner also checks power in average wind, gusts and lulls. Offshore wind, excessive gusts and rider-level limits cap the result.
The ceiling of 96 is deliberate: the service cannot see launch obstacles, actual waves, equipment condition or the rider's condition. A score of 100 would look like a promise the system cannot make.

WHY THIS IS USEFUL
Not one forecast.
A forecast cross-check.
Cross-check three models
ICON, ECMWF IFS and GFS come through Open-Meteo. Smaller model spread supports higher confidence.
Open‑Meteo ↗Account for the shore
Strong offshore wind is still a poor answer. Every score accounts for working sectors, gustiness, precipitation and rider level.
Spot guide ↗How to read the score: the 0–96 index is a transparent heuristic, not a statistical probability. It compares kite size, weight, rider level, wind and gusts, the shore's working sector and spread across three models. Days 1–3 are more useful; days 4–5 are guidance and days 6–7 are an early signal to recheck before travelling.
VERIFIED LIVE LAYER
How many sensors are actually working.
We count physical stations rather than API rows. Duplicate channels are merged, stale readings are not called live, and persistent zero readings are flagged for review.
