Hi guys,

Would you be interested in exchange your place in Newquay/Cornwall (or anywhere else for that matter) for a short period of time, and in return get to stay for free at another great surf location...?

I'm thinking of setting up a site helps surfers swap home - could be a great wave to save money and learn about great spots when out traveling.

WDYT? Could this work?

Cheers

Nils

I think its a brilliant idea provided users posted both pictures and information of their property and its location...as it would be pretty bad ending up in a dump, miles from a beach whilst the owners are lapping it up in your luxury pad. Plus, administration on the site would have to be a big priority to ensure fraud does not occur.

But yea, sounds like you've got a very good business idea there!

Simmosimmons - thanks for your feedback!

I think people could admin themselves, if you create a system for ranking members and places ...
Think about sites like coach surfing for example as seems to be working out really well.

Ok, we've just finished the coding and added the feature to the site.

Right now there's only one listing and that's my own place in London.
Let me know if you wanna swap & please PM me for further details

Would also appreciate any comments on how easy / hard it is to add a place & what you're think is missing etc.
