Surfhog on your iPhone

Surfhog surf report now on iPhoneYou've been able to check surfhog on your mobile for a while by pointing your mobile browser to wap.surfhog.com, but after a weekend of fiddling I've just released a version built specifically for the iPhone or iPodtouch (it also works in Apples Safari browser Mac or PC).

Just open wap.surfhog.com on your iPhone or iPodtouch and you'll automatically get directed to the iPhone optimised version of surfhog.com for live wave buoy, wind and tide info on the move...if you havent got an iPhone you'll still get the slimed down mobile friendly version of old.

I plan on doing a bit more tweaking over the next week but thought I'd get it out there.

The only wave in Cornwall

Took my time getting on it today, with the high tide early and a small swell on the cards, there was no need to rush. Still I got impatient and hit it mid tide rather than the low I'd planned, rocked up to see 17 guys in the water on weak setty waist/chest, I'm all over it as folks are rocking up in the car park all the time. I had a blast, beautiful long lefts that rewarded you if you put in a little foot work. When I left loads more in the water, swell definitely dropping and folks still on the search heading west on the A30 as I headed home, I hope you guys got something. Below a shot of the beach from the top, from a few days before.
