Wakeboard wall racks???

wickedwake 08-31-2005, 11:29 AM

I think I saw some people that hung their wakeboards on bike racks on their wall. I searched to no avail. If I didnt just make this up please someone tell me which bike racks you can do this with and where to get them from. Thanks! Clay

Lowes or Home Depot, like $5 each

We have them for our wakeboards... they work GREAT! And the arms fold up when not in use. You can fit two boards on one rack if one of the boards doesn't have binding.

If you have a Harbor Freight store where you live, they have the powder coated antler looking hangers for like $2. theyre perfect for boards and accessories. I disconnect my bimmini during the winter and hang it on these in the garage.

I made my own out of wood and mounted them to the garage wall. Fun project.

There's an article in the current Ski magazine on how to build a ski rack. Wakeboard would be the same but with longer dowels and spaced further apart (for bindings).

Here are mine, the Transcend is on an actual board rack, the EVO and snowboard are on bike racks...

I like the bike racks better. Looks like the boards could fall out of the board racks. Ever had a problem with that?

We have never had a board fall out of the bike racks.

Clay - your first pic resembles the wall in me and my girlfriend's apartment. She let me decorate a whole wall

. I have four of those racks that you have your transcend on, and about 2 boards in each rack. 4 Snowboards, 2 with bindings, 2 wakeboards with bindings, and one blank.

No, the board stays in board rack very good, but I like the bike racks a LOT better, they are much more sturdy.

Yeah, I bought 5 years of WBM off ebay and put them on my wall

I have the whole wall covered and most of another wall.

We need to buy a few for our garage for board storage during the summer. Can't go wrong for $5 a piece...
