        What a great site, covers everything you need to know for surfing, snow skiing, flying, and fishing. One more great addition and the only addition you need is a link to tide charts.

          Hey Ivo! I'm a passionate windsurfer and found your site a couple of weeks ago - I just wanted to say - great work! I absolutely love it! I keep checking my forecasts here, and I'm loosing a lot of time in my Job doing that now. ;) - I'm writing physics simulations code for work and I'm completely wind crazy - So, if you ever have an extension project going on, or something I can help with - I'd love to. Martin

            @m_w_2_3 Thanks for offer. Unless you are form Czech and willing to work as a programmer, there is not too much of a help.

                    This is such a helpful site for commercial salmon fishing in Southeast Alaska. I appreciate your efforts, Ivo - and I know of a lot of other vessel owners that use Windyty multiple times a day to determine their next area of operation. Thank you so much! Joe

                      Thank you Ivo and other programmers for providing such a useful and simple to use weather tool. As an avid fisherman and one who spends a great deal of time on the water cruising the east coast of Florida, Windyty is the best.

                      Truly appreciate the time you've spent making this available.

                        Hi,

                        Thank you Ivo and the other programmers for bringing us such a great program, I must admit I have never really thought about the wind all that much except when it blows cold during the winter or knocks over some pot plants, then my thoughts aren't very complimentary of nature:-)
                        However, your program has given this old man a new interest, so for that, I again say Thank You, please keep up your great work.

                            I'm planning to sail the world and stumbled upon this side in a video from other people already doing so. Use it everyday for my family sail trips. Awesome.

                            Thank you!

                              Dear Ivo and Windyty team,

                              I'm Jorge Madden, professional sailboat racer, big boat captain, surfer, kiter... And I was a programmer my self back in the day before I gave it up completely to the outdoors :)

                              Windyty is so beautiful to watch and so helpful when planning long distance sailing travels "at first sight". It helps me understand what route to take from the beginning. You have been my main weather website to check during last year, where I sailed from San Francisco (California) to Panama and up to the Caribbean on S/Y Kialoa III. I love your distance measuring tools and I use them to plan my routes as it is much quicker than opening any of my navigation apps or my plotter.

                              Great job, keep it beautiful and simple. Thank you and I'm glad to see this was made by fellow wind lovers with such a great taste. I wish you steady breeze and perfect waves on warm waters!!! :)

                                @ivo Windyty Rocks!
                                I am a glider pilot in Australia and I use Windyty all the time.
                                But now in winter we go wave flying and Windyty is the perfect tool for predicting wave formation!
                                Thank you.

                                    Would it be possible to add placemarks for places of interest so one could return to them at a later time? Very nice application and greatly appreciated. Thanks much.

                                      Hi Ivo,
                                      Windyty.com is an AWESOME resource I use for sailing on the Pacific Coast of California. The distance measurements were a great addition. Would it be possible to save the route measurement on the screen and also be able to adjust the overlay for wind, waves, etc... and take new wind measurements?
                                      At the moment, the distance ruler and the wind measurement cannot be manipulated simultaneously.

                                        Dear Ivo,
                                        Upon reading your bio I had to look twice!
                                        First; my name is Ivo.
                                        Second; I am also a Pilot. (Frmr Capt Swedish Air Ambulance )
                                        Avid boater and kayaker so a good weather app is a must.
                                        You made a great app Ivo!
                                        I have used it since a friend linked a pointer in the right direction when I was sailing down in Croatia in June this year.
                                        I was then trying to dodge the famous "Yugo" wind.
                                        Hats of for a great weather app!
                                        Keep up the great Work!
                                        All the Best
                                        Ivo
