Does anyone have any experience with these racks? They seem good for what they are and half of what the monster ones cost. Any opinions?

Is it all aluminum? Do the board hit each other? I have lightning and my boards hit each other.

That is a ton of load on a single collar. Make sure the collar is sized to your tube because a rubber filler grommet just aint gonna work, no how no way.

DIY uses solid clamps (collars) without any bushings. They are very thick and have a good contact patch.

I got that rack over the winter and have used it all summer so far with no problems.
