As the topic states I am looking for a wakeboard rack that will not slip when you are on rough water. I have a fusion rack now as it sucks, any ideas?

XTP OA 360 Rack - I've sold a lot of racks over the years and this one is the toughest cookie out there. Can be bought from www.MonsterTower.com

Get one that's mounted on the vertical crossbar instead of the horizontal one.

I am thinking my tower is 2" diameter I am going to check tommorow. It is a proflight swoop, so does that mean I am out of luck on this rack?

brichter14, Good quality but no good for salt water (Which I take the wording 'Rough water' to indicate ocean boating??).

lvfive.o, They come with universal inserts now so they will fit any tower.

Brit Rider, Sometimes the lake im on (lake shelbyville, illinois) gets pretty rough. But yeah ocean would be a bit rougher Very Happy

but for freshwater the diywake's are very solid. btw electrical tape on the tower under the clamps makes nice snug fits Very Happy
