Description

SURF VOL is an easy to use calculator and must-have utility for any surfer.
Simply read the dimensions from your board and enter these in the App to reveal the volume in liters.

Two functions are included:
1) Integrating an existing surf board's dimensions and contours to derive the theoretical volume.
2) Median volume recommendation for your weight, height, and ability (personal preferences may vary).

Helpful for analyzing your existing or future quiver !
Keep it handy next time you browse your local shaper's boardroom.
Compare your board against your buddies.
Improve your surfing, paddling, and duck-diving by matching your equipment for the conditions.

If you search the internet, you'll find alot of volume calculators that recommend a certain volume
based on your physique, experience, etc. These web tools, tables, and/or graphs are supplied by shapers to help narrow the selection and best fit you to your next board.

The problem with using these alone is that although your height and weight are factual, your experience and skill level are quite subjective. Ask a dozen similar people what their skill level is and you will get a dozen different answers (this is known as the human Dunning-Kruger effect). So there may be some variability in not only your honest assessment of your own skill level, but also there is variability from the shaper's own definition of beginner, amateur, etc.

Where this app comes in handy is cross-checking your existing board against your future board.
Suppose your shaper's website recommends 27 liters for your next board. Take my volume calculator and type in the dimensions of your current board. Note any difference in volume between the two. That will help you understand what you will be getting in your next board.

For example, suppose my Surfboard Volume Calculator comes up with 26 liters in your existing board. Then its probably safe to say that your new 27 liter board will be more floaty. 1 liter is definitely noticeable. If you think your existing 26 liter board is barely enough volume, then 27 liters would be a good choice. On the other hand, if you think your existing board volume is already in the sweet spot, then you might want to keep your new board volume closer to 26 liters. Its probably a good idea to try several different shaper's calculators along with my SURF VOL. Also remember that volume, while critically important, must be precisely balanced against other compelling factors that an expert shaper will meticulously align when shaping your board. In other words, talk with and listen to your shaper for first hand advice.

A surfboard is an investment (at least for most of us), and as they say in the shop, measure twice cut once. Keep surfing !

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

3 ★Looks like it could be a good app. Just needs updating to work on newer versions of Android. Unfortunate
5 ★Sick app - sooooo handy!
4 ★Very accurate calculation
5 ★good
5 ★After I figured out the buttons, started messing around entering random board dimensions from surfings buyers guide where the shaper already includes the boards volume, and this was spot on. Don't know how it does it but it works.
1 ★Good idea, it just doesn't work period.
5 ★Works Perfect.
3 ★Not bad.
1 ★After I enter all fields it keeps telling me "missing parameters". Great idea, but it dies not work on S3
