Starting as a pay service, WaveCast quickly became a popular forecasting service for Southern California, providing members with inexpensive, accurate forecasts,<ref>Marc Kent, Surf Talk Radio Network, interview June 1999</ref> and received accolades throughout various local media including Marc Kent’'s Let’'s Talk Surfing.

Cool eventually teamed with WetSand, a new portal for the surfing community. The business model was conducive to providing free forecasts, and the combined expertise brought the availability of demographic expansion while placing crucial information regarding coastal conditions to surfers around the globe.
