    Default Help needed for surf racks

    Hi I currently have 8 - 10 windsurf & surfboards and have a rack system that uses these brackets (see below), but because of the angled support bit, it doesn't allow me to make full use of the area and I can't get enough boards in. Can anyone assist with a bracket I can buy e.g an L shaped one that is strong enough or a wooden one I can make that will be strong enough. If I just used a plank of wood, I'm not sure how I would bolt it to the wall.

    Hi,

    I recently made some racks for my son's stand up paddle boards.
    The back is 40mm square section gal steel tube.
    The bars are 25mm round gal tube.
    Drill 25mm holes through square tube as desired - need a drill press and big bit!
    Drill extra holes for attaching uprights to wall.
    I used 11mm at back for 10mm dynabolts and 25mm at front for access to nut.
    Tack weld bars at rear of square tube (I took this to local steel shop as I don't have welder).
    Slide closed cell rubber tube over round bars.
    Attach to wall.
    I've got a photo somewhere on my phone.

    The finished product.
    A little dark paint to match the rubber sleeves.
