KnotNow was born out of the frustration of the "nearly-good" session. We've all been there: checking the wind five times a day, feeling that excitement build, only to realize the tide will always be all wrong.
We're here to give you your time back by pinpointing exactly when the conditions align with you and your life.
Our Mission: Bespoke Ratings
The UK coast is fickle. A "great" forecast is meaningless if it doesn't account for the hidden logic of your specific spot. KnotNow blends wind forecasts, tidal data with your personal "Goldilocks" settings. By tailoring the wind range and tide heights to your skill level, we deliver a forecast that finally matches reality. If it's not Epic, you'll know exactly why.
Dirty Water
Water quality should become a non-negotiable part of your pre-session check. With the saturated ground we've seen in early 2026, the scale of sewage discharges is, frankly, mind-blowing. At KnotNow, we use the best data available to show you exactly what is happening under the surface:
- Active Discharges: Live spill data within 3km of English spots.
- The 48-Hour Rule: We flag any spills that occurred in the last two days.
- Duration Tracking: It's not just if there was a spill, but for how long.
- Run-off Potential: We also show any heavy rainfall from the previous 24 hours to alert you to potential run-off risk.
