## Description

You can use this MCP to take the guesswork out of high-performance surfing. Instead of relying on intuition alone, you can feed your speed, board type, and wave conditions into your AI client to get actionable physics data. It calculates exactly where to start a turn to avoid getting caught in a closing section and predicts how your board will react when you attempt to return to the wave face. Whether you are analyzing a specific wave shape or planning a line through a section, this tool provides the mathematical foundation for better positioning and smoother transitions. It treats the wave as a geometric problem, giving you the timing and angles needed to execute precise cutbacks.

## Tools

### analyze_section_timing
This tool calculates how much time you have before a wave section moves past your cutback zone. It helps you avoid getting caught by a closing section.

### calculate_maneuver_radius
This tool determines the curvature of your turn based on your physical constraints. It uses your speed and board dynamics to find the turn radius.

### calculate_reentry_angle
This tool predicts the specific angle you will hit the wave face when returning from a turn. It uses your trajectory data to forecast the re-entry.

### get_optimal_cutback_point
This tool identifies the best location on the wave to start your cutback. It finds the ideal initiation point based on current wave geometry.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Where should I start my cutback on a peeling wave if I'm on a shortboard going 5 m/s?
```

**Response:** 
```
The ideal initiation point is 4.5 meters ahead of your current position at a 15-degree angle.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What will my re-entry angle be if I have a maneuver radius of 3 meters on a hollow wave?
```

**Response:** 
```
The predicted re-entry angle is 42 degrees relative to the wave face.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much time do I have to turn if the wave section is moving at 4 m/s and I am going 6 m/s?
```

**Response:** 
```
You have 2.5 seconds before the section becomes unmanageable for a cutback.
```

## Capabilities

### Turn Radius Calculation
Your agent uses this to find the curvature of a maneuver based on speed and board type.

### Re-entry Prediction
Your AI client calculates the angle of return to the wave face.

### Timing Analysis
Your agent determines the window of opportunity before a section closes out.

### Initiation Point Mapping
Your AI client finds the best spot on the wave to begin a maneuver.

## Use Cases

### Refining Turn Precision
Use the radius tool to understand how much space you need for a specific turn.

### Avoiding Section Closures
Check the section timing to ensure you finish your maneuver before the wave breaks.

### Planning Maneuver Lines
Find the best spot to start a cutback on a peeling wave.

### Analyzing Re-entry Angles
