I only go to stabmag to read the comments.

Magicseaweed is ok for longer range forecasts. I think they are UK based so just use basic weather models that are not aussie specific.
Dont think to the average punter the aqusition by surfstich is going to change much.

MSW is a laugh - their forecast is constantly putting Trigg somewhere in the 5-8foot range, even in the middle of summer!

Maybe that explains the crowds...

MSW are pretty reasonable forecasters in many locations across the globe. If you download their Ap you can make adjustments based on ur local and it will work a treat.
