so i bought a obrien alias 5.0 last week. love the board so i wanna take care of it. i would like to get a rack but all of the ones i sell and can get are way too wide. basiclly i need a wakeboard rack with longer ropes.....any ideas on who offers something like this? or has someone rigged a rack yet?

Fly High gives you an extension for theirs that accommodates skim surf boards. It's about 4" long.
Their rack does not use bungees. The rack is designed for wakeboards

I cut the middle tine out of one of my wakeboard racks with a band saw then put some industrial plastic molding/piping on the bottom to protect the board, added some swim noodles on two of the remaining tines to protect board, it will accomodate various width boats, see profile pic. The straps are a little tight, but the board is bigger and catches more air in the rack and needs it.

Correction.... "various width boards" not boats
