"The wave data is compiled using Python from the website www.wannasurf.com. WannaSurf
is an online database of surf spots recording their location.... The data on the website is crowd-sourced (like Wikipedia) from a community of 78,000...." OUCH!

Ahhhhh. I understood it as 'what waves are worth' i.e a dollar a wave. Now that im here i wonder if we could tread off topic and perhaps explore the title as i read it haha.

There have been days that i have had off say due to rain and ive enjoyed good waves just at my local. As a sub contractor im not paid for rain days but was i happy with trade off? Yes. Which in turn makes me wonder, if was happy to sacrifice a days wage for waves just a my local aka mediocre, what price would i be willing to pay for half a dozen perfect waves?
