  2. you could use like the height of the wave and umm the angle both you body and board need to be at in order to have a perfect snap. also the speed of you and your wave, and the perfect angle for a nice steep wave. like 90deg or 80 deg?

  3. It is used a lot in surf forecasting.  You have to measure the speed and distance the swell is traveling.  You have to look at the wave period and shore bathymetry to forecast the size if the waves.  You have to look at the swell travel angle the the shore orientation to determine which beaches will have the best surf.

    There are probably some formulas used in board building with determining how much volume a board needs for a certain persons size and weight.  Based on the volume then you would have to come up with the board dimensions.

  4. You can add up the d**k-heads

  5. Let’s see you need math to calculate how to make the perfect board. You can calculate the correct size and velocity of a wave.  

    What is the point of this question??
