Hvasser is a populated island in Færder Municipality in Vestfold county, Norway. The 3.6-square-kilometre (1.4 sq mi) island is located in the Oslofjord right between the island of Tjøme to the west and the small island of Sandø to the east. The island sits about 25 kilometres (16 mi) south of the city of Tønsberg and about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) northwest of the Færder Lighthouse. The name comes from the Norwegian word "hvass", meaning sharp, which is owed to sharp cliffs on the island.

You've already got wind data — the hard part is knowing what it means for you. Most kiters end up checking two, three, four apps and still asking: can I actually go? Breeza was built by a kiter who had the same problem. Feed it your gear, weight and level and it tells you if Hvasser syd is rideable right now. The answer, not the tabs.
