Pulse Stick-on Tide Chart

Cool concept!

The Pulse Stick On Tide Chart is a product that enables surfers to calculate tidal times for areas worldwide for an entire year and calculate tides in places where tidal data is not yet collected.

Eliminating the need for any reliance on computers, buoys, or media, the Pulse Tide Chart is an interesting tool. The instructions that come with each chart explain how to set the chart and how to calculate tidal times anytime, anywhere.

I found the sticker form intriguing in that once you understand the concept, you simply adhere it to the deck of your board and you're ready for action.

The Pulse Stick On Tide Chart works in most locations affected by tidal influence around the world, including rivers and bays and can be set to locations to which you plan to travel.

In fact with an on-line locations database that gives general Start Times, I found the most functional aspect of this chart to be upon taking a surf trip where you may have no access to tidal info.

With convenient contact information and fairly simple instructions on-line, the Pulse Tide Chart has lots of possiblities for novice surfers and experts alike.

There's nothing else like it out there, and it looks quite sporty on the the deck of your stick.
