Trips
Chase the swell, not the group chat
Picking the break, the dates and who’s driving with the boards. Plynr keeps your surf trip in one place, so you can watch the forecast instead of your phone.

Finding a weekend that works
Everyone wants to go, but lining up leave and weekends takes forever.
Boards, lifts and gear
Who’s driving, whose car fits the boards and who’s bringing what.
The plan changes with the swell
When the forecast changes, everyone needs the update fast.

Vote on the dates and break
Send a Poll with a few weekends or spots. Everyone votes, and the winner updates your Plyn.

Send one Event Plyn

3
Keep the crew in the loop
Share forecast updates, sort lifts and gear in the chat, and let reminders do the chasing.

Relive it afterwards
Once it’s done, it becomes a Past Plyn. Everyone adds their photos, and you can keep private notes of the best waves.
