Why surf schools need more than generic booking software

Surf lessons are not haircuts. A booking only makes sense when the swell, tide, wind, student level, board availability, and coach schedule all line up. Generic appointment tools know none of that.

SurfSchool.app reads the forecast for every booked session and tells you GO, ADAPT, or CANCEL — and one tap moves the lesson to the best window of the day, with the student notified automatically.

Ocean AutopilotForecast + student level + coach + boards → GO / ADAPT / CANCEL, executed in one tap.
Student self-serviceStudents reschedule into the best ocean windows themselves — no WhatsApp back-and-forth.
Stripe paymentsCard checkout with automatic payouts to your school. You only pay 5% per booking.
Equipment capacityBoards drying or in repair automatically shrink bookable capacity — no double-booked gear.

FAQ
