Full description
Boardiction works out where you'll have the most fun today and over the next few days. Wind forecast for Europe: spots in eleven countries, with more coming soon. Multi-model weather data, tuned to your spot, explained by AI in two sentences. Your wind reports feed straight back into the model — you make the forecast better, for yourself and for everyone else. SPOT-ACCURATE FORECASTS We blend global weather models (ECMWF, GFS, ICON) with regional ones (Arome HD, Icon CH1) freshly for every spot. Which mix works on site is something the community's session feedback tells us. And where every model is blind, our machine learning steps in. YOUR SPOT GETS BETTER BECAUSE YOU'RE THERE A newly added spot starts with a well-founded estimate. With every wind report and every rating of a forecast it learns — and gets more accurate the more people ride there. You're not improving the forecast for us, but for yourself and everyone who sails the same lake. WIND SHADOW Our physics-based terrain model calculates, for every spot and every wind direction, how mountains, forests and buildings weaken the wind — so you know when a spot really works and when the forecast only looks good on paper. HOW GOOD WILL THE SESSION BE Instead of raw wind figures you see the best time window for each day and how good it will be — from "fair" to "epic". And because a day often has more than one window, morning thermals and an afternoon build-up, you get all of them. What's waiting for you at the spot is explained by the AI in plain language — with a warning when things get tricky. YOUR HOME WATERS ARE IN HERE Eleven countries are on board right now: Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, France including Corsica, Denmark, Greece, Croatia, Slovenia, Cyprus and Portugal. Spain and more European countries are coming soon. Among them are classics such as Walchensee, Kochelsee, Tegernsee, Achensee, Silvaplana, Torbole and Malcesine on Lake Garda, Klitmøller and Hvide Sande on the Danish North Sea coast and Limnos in the Aegean. If your spot is missing, find it in the catalogue and add it — from then on we compute it for you. The focus is on thermal regions — where forecasting is hard and a good forecast makes the difference. Every spot runs the Boardiction model that fits it best — and every rating of a forecast makes it better. NEW REGION? SPOT RECOMMENDATION No local knowledge, nobody to ask? Boardiction searches the area and recommends the spot that suits. You don't have to research it yourself any more. TIDES IN VIEW At tidal spots you see the tide right in the forecast, and the spot recommendation factors it in — so you turn up when both line up: wind and water level. SPOT CHAT AND SPOT KNOWLEDGE Every spot has its own chat: live conditions, session partners, local knowledge. The practical details are kept up by the community — height restrictions, entry points, showers, parking. From people who are actually there. And the Boardies display shows you how busy a spot is before you set off. Check in at the tap of a button when you're on the water. FOR YOUR SPORT Windsurfer, kitesurfer, wing foiler — pick what you ride. Wind speed in knots, km/h, m/s or Beaufort, temperature in °C or °F. Light or dark. Your settings, your units. FREE TO START Boardiction is free to use: several spots, the full forecast with no delay, unlimited spot chat. No account needed to get going. Boardiction Pro unlocks every spot and removes the ads. Never miss a session. One last note: Boardiction is a forecast, not a guarantee. Weather in the mountains and on a lake can turn quickly. Judge your own ability realistically, stay within your limits and follow the rules at your spot. Boardiction does not replace official weather warnings.
