tahiti wave height chart

:idea:
decided that a tahiti wave height chart was needed. could never find one so i made one up. i think that it will be useful in telling whether of not a south swell will make it here. there must be some sort of relationship with size and vectors...your thoughts.

thanks megaprober, it is very nice.

but I'm just a simple unfrozen caveman surfer. your fancy "charts" and big words like "vector" - scare and confuse me. I need bright moving colors and simple forecasts like "THERE WILL BE OVERHEAD WAVES NEXT WEDNESDAY ON THE NORTH SHORE AND THE WINDS WILL BE GOOD"

thanks, and my apologies to saturday night live

Maybe it should be kept real simple and the forecasters can just rate each day on the binary scale - it's either a 0 or a 1 today. I always found that rating something, like chicks, on any other scale is too much information. "Hey that girl's a 7." "No way, she's 10." These fanciful comments by your buddies can always be simplified down to the binary scale. Either the girl's a 1 or she's a 0. Would you, or wouldn't you? No other numbers matter.
