Surf Racks generally refer to material used for the storage or transportation of surfboards. There are two main types of surf racks: Vehicle surf racks and Storage surf racks.

Vehicle surf racks typically come equipped with mounting hardware for strapping surfboards to the roof of a vehicle and can be used transport large or otherwise cumbersome surfboards to and from the beach. Vehicle surf racks consist of two metal or aluminum bars bolted to a vehicles roof with soft foam pads wrapped around the metal to protect the surfboards from being damaged. Tie down straps equipped with a heavy buckle securely fasten the surfboard and prevent it from moving while driving.

Storage surf racks are designed to store one or several surfboards and can be wall or ceiling mounted. Storage surf racks can be made out of a variety of materials including plastic, wood, or metal. Wall surf racks can be designed for storage or display purposes in either a vertical or horizontal position. Most Longboards require being stored in a horizontal position due to their long length.
