The rack can make a stack of boards, one board wide and comes with pads for the bottom. I would say three to four SUPs max depending on size. You will need to get additional ones for additional boards. Foam pool noodles work well.

The cables that hold the boards down are long enough as the others have said for 2-3 SUPs. It does not come with material for the extra boards but I just use medium o higher density packing foam.

Does not come with spacers or foam blocks. Only foam roof rack pads. I got some foam pieces from the Dollar Store sold as "toddler kickboards" which work awesome. I've transported 3 SUPs. I'd say I could carry 4 stock boards (surf style-3"), but probably not 4 thick race boards (6").

thanks for your reply- i too notice the large mass on one paddle and little or nothing on the other one. i fail to see how two paddles matter if it all ends up on one paddle- is it really beneficial or just a marketing gimmick? i still love the machine, i'm just at a loss as to what the two paddles do.

This rack doesn't "do" anything. That's the beauty of it! You buy the additional components for whatever you want to carry. I'm sure you could strap a surfboard to them, though.

Yes, just tie them down tight. You may want to wrap the tie down straps around the board a few times before strapping down to the rack.

There are two identical racks per box. Each rack has two plastic brackets with screws. Be sure to position the brackets as shown in the picture provided on the amazon web site, especially the bottom bracket. It must be placed right under the bar that the kayak rests on. That prevents the rack from slipping out of the brackets when the weight of the kayak is placed on them. The kayak does not touch the wall. Gary

I always have two for yoga class, but sometimes only use one of them. I personally think that you need two since some exercises require them. These are great blocks. I think that they work better than the wooden ones and are lots better than the foam.

Mine came with 2 but with predrilled adjustment holes it would be easy enough to construct additional racksat 2 - 3 inch spacing? I only use 1 due to only smoking Turkeys or Boston Butts.

I have the thick foam board and it fits a little loose. Call the manufacturer they answered when I called.

Not sure about the difference but the SUP version probably has wider supports the supports are at least as wide as my SUPs.

I had to order a separate rack, and use the hooks from the second rack for the first one. If anyone knows how to acquire separate hooks for this rack, I'm all ears.

We purchased two because my husband wanted it so that one gripper would be on the left side and one on the right side of the truck bed. However, he told me "extenders" can be purchased for each grip if you would rather the bikes be side by side. We probably will look into the "extenders" eventually because others have shown an interest to ride with us. That way we would carry up to four bikes in the back of our truck. Hope this makes sense to you!

Anyone ever get an actual dimension of the mounting pads? Tight on space to mount and want to get the exact size. Thanks.

i did not need any spacers, they seem to work well. i do not claim to be a skaeteboard expert tho

Thanks! I should have mentioned I am using foam blocks w/straps right now so I will use same on the rack:-)

I would dbl ck w/ the manufacturer, but you should be able to use this rack. I only hauled Paddle boards.

Depends on the terrain, the size and shape of the boards, and how much other gear you pile on. I would use some foam or board bones as they are called and fit custom straps for two boards, but the wheels are designed for one and may not last as long with two. It would be safer to buy two sets.

Yes! Works perfectly. I've strapped two boards each in a separate bag with no problem. REALLY cool rack system! Easy to install, easy to operate, and very secure snug fit. Highly recommend.
