trying to make my schedual for school...does anyone know statistically what day of the week gets the most waves and swells???? i know its random and up to gd..... but for example in the past decade lets say tuesday and thursday got more swells landing on that day then any other day of the week (hypathetically).. im going to make sure to leave my class shcedual open for these days...............soooo if anyone knows mathimatically or from expierence please!! let me know thanks -staystoke
nope not kidding just wondering imagine we knew the probability of which day of the week gets slammed with the best waves.... this is very valuble info .....so i hoping some weirdo out there kept a surf journal from the past couple of years to let me know the glorious answer
ha LOL!!! the cruel irony of the ocean....it always seems to be that way....just like the sec you get out from a sesion you see the best wave of the day roll in perfect and empty
Just schedule your classes for midday spread evenly throughout the week so you can go dawn patrol and then get back to the beach after class for an evening sesh.
I used to always pile all of my classes up on Tuesdays and Thursdays... and then literally get all my work done Wednesday. Then i had a 4-day weekend to surf!! I managed to do that for about 3/4 of my semesters through college.
Better yet, why don't you tell US what days you scheduled classes on so we can all expect great swells those days
Dont know where you are going to school, but as strange as this question sounded, every swell that has been 20ft+ for the past decade on the west coast, have all hit the coast on Wednesdays... for 10 years. There are waves the rest of the week, but the swell peaks and has the most perfect conditions on wednesdays out here... Now that I said that, it will never happen again, but its funny, every two years on the west coast, the post an article called "BIG WEDNESDAY" because it seriously is always on a wednesday.... I surfed the cove on a wednesday earlier this year... The only days it broke all year were on a wednesday and thursday.... Strange....
there is no way there is any significant correlation to day of the week. Months, Seasons, yes... not day of the week.
be optimistic Not yet......dont doubt future science, and good forcasting for one day they will let us know. if you really wanted to you can log every day there is good waves, and just round all those numbers and get the average of how many waves per day each day, thus getting our AnSWER.............vise versa looking into the past with old surf forcasting
your best bet is to take night classes or pile all your classes into 1 or 2 days....keep in mind you have sick days, but use them wisely
Do the tues/thurs schedule. I have a 4 day weekend, plus wednesdays to surf.Plus a 2 hour break in between classes on tues/thurs. Can literally go to class around the waves
I'm not sure that these posts are claiming there is any correlation between days of the week and days the surf is good. Hypothetical: Lets say that historical record tells us that of all the good surf days in the past, Wednesday edges out in the lead. This historical record of good surf has ZERO correlation with anything weather related. It just so happens that this is the case, for no reason other than a weird fluke in probability. The mistake of this thread, is assuming that taking this historical data (which doesn't exist?), and using it to predict future good days of surf, might actually merit a positive result. Inductive reasoning of this kind is completely untrustworthy, and as swellinfo said before, has zero correlation to any type of weather patterns...... but then again....if your a bit of a gambler, why not follow the trends when planning your schedule? It's not going to hurt haha.
