About

Hi surf world. My name’s Keiller and I’m a surfer originally from Toronto, Canada. I first started surfing during my time in college at UCSB, but really only started progressing on a shortboard once I started surfing some heavier waves up around Santa Cruz and San Francisco.

I made Setwave.surf to help surfers like me. Surfers that may not have had the opportunity to grow up surfing and might not have the access to mentors that can help them understand things about board design like what volume actually means. Like many of us, surfing is my main passion, but I can’t actually get to the beach to surf as often as I’d like. With that in mind, I try to make the most of my time in the water, by training for surfing and making sure I’m on the right equipment for when I’m out there.

That’s why the Setwave calculator uses the Guild Factor methodology: a documented range, with the adjustments shown.
