How do I know if my current surfboard is right for me?

You can use the `compare_equipment_suitability` tool. Provide your weight, skill level, the board's volume, and the wave type to get a suitability score.

Does skill level affect the volume recommendation?

Yes. Beginners typically require more volume for stability, while advanced surfers can use lower volumes for better maneuverability. The `get_recommended_volume` tool accounts for this difference.

Can I see how volume is distributed on the board?

Yes, the `get_volume_distribution` tool provides the percentage of volume for the nose, center, and tail based on your riding style.

This MCP server provides precise surfboard design recommendations by analyzing surfer physical attributes and environmental factors. Use get_recommended_volume to find the ideal liter range for your weight and skill level. You can also use get_volume_distribution to understand how volume should be spread across the board, or get_buoyancy_profile to predict how the board will behave in specific wave types. For existing gear, compare_equipment_suitability evaluates if your current board is appropriate for upcoming conditions.
