Snowboard Rack
 
So I've searched quite a bit but the Rola brand is too expensive and the Barrecrafters site says nothing will fit the SVX. SO.. what I'm really looking for is something to haul 3-4 snowboards around during the winter. Something like a trunk mounted bike rack maybe? Do they make those for snowboards? Anyone have any ideas?

Why you wanna use the SVX for that? :(:confused:

years ago I saw a magnetic rack that went on the roof, might be worth a google.

The rack does exist for the SVX. It is specially made for it... but would you put it and use it in that sense?

...Hell, Id haul snowboards on the roof of my svx...

I know someone made a rather large rack to carry his hang glider...try finding that thread, and it'll give you insight into making your own if need be:)

they fit in the trunk if you put the backseats down...

I wanna use my SVX 'cause it's the only car I have to get to the hill lol. And Yes 4 snowboards would fit in the trunk if I put the seats down but then I wouldn't be able to accommodate 3 passengers to use the boards :P

I don't know anything about making my own rack and that includes like welding and stuff so yeah.

Been looking around. If I find something I'll let you all know.

Why on earth would you wanna drag your knuckles like a cave man anyways!;)

I wouldn't trust a magnetic carrier nor a bike carrier style unless it was hitch mounted an you gotta get a hitch first. Good luck with that !;)

Get yourself a locker at the ski resort. It'll be cheaper!:lol:

One of the California forum members, Matt (still here?), has the snow board carrier on his Laguna Blue seen in this photo link.

I want to carry my snowboards on the roof too. + I think the car will look cool with the boards on top.... I can aslo use it to go surf on summer...

So, there is a rack for the car??

IceBlade 11-14-2007 12:00 PM

Is that car red by chance? One came into the dealership I work at like 5 months ago that had a very well done hang glider rack on it, but I haven't seen it in town since then...


I should search before I post! lol if the red one shows up in town again I'll be sure to get a picture of it.
