Here’s a walkthrough for yesterday’s 2-1 Tiles by Freddie: https://youtu.be/Bv9hzM4sNBs

Out of otters after yesterday's winners? Not yet! Congrats to @atroposhears for guessing today's genre and receiving an otter! 🦦

There are many kinds of Surf to enjoy! Do you like to head to the ocean and surf on large waves? 🏄 Or stay inside and surf the net? 🖥️ If you’d like a relaxing break, watching the surf formed by waves breaking upon the shore is nice… 🌊🏖️

Rules: Shade some cells such that each connected group of shaded cells is of one of the shapes given outside the grid: A line segment represents a one-wide straight path of at least two cells, and a node represents a turn, branch, or endpoint. Rotations and reflections are permitted. Clues cannot be shaded, and every orthogonally connected area of unshaded cells contains exactly one clue, the value of which represents the size of the area.

Note: The example solution uses circles and edges to mark how the shapes correspond to the shaded cell groups. You don't need to mark these circles and edges when solving.
