   Very very cool! I'm not a surfer, but I'd become one just to look at this.

    This is awesome! Not a surfer myself, but I can appreciate the clear read of info on this shot.

    One thing I noticed, is how you labeled the temperatures "Air" and "H2O". Not sure if they're surfer lingo, but if not, I think they should be consistent. Either full words, or abbreviations on both.

    dunno why, prob because I saw it the other day, but it reminds me of http://www.nest.com (in a totally sexy hot cousin surf dial kind of way).

    I want the green area to feel inset, under the top; like it deserves a small inner shadow.

    outside the nonsensical commentary (#hatersgonnahate). . . .as usual, looks awesomazeable.

    I am in love with this, I want to get my hands on it. I know you see it from the rest, but it's well deserved, great shot.

    and @Michal, I think the balance of the 3 characters together hold it well as I would think >90% of users should know what H20 would stand for. But I see where you're coming from.

    Dan, your work is fantastic! This looks like a great app. I love the niche! What a fun subject matter to work with eh?

    Yeah, the texture in te backgreound, the information hierarchy, shapes, color... there is a really great balance and sense of detail here.

    Beautiful.

    Looks amazing.
    I really dig the subtle texture inside this gauge.

    One comment though, I think the temperature should be just a bit bigger... a bit. :)

    Make sure you pixel hint the text in the middle. The anti-aliasing is very apparent. Everything else is beautiful!
