Board Rack Help

I recently purchased a '03 Supra Launch SSV. It came with boardracks but my board wont go on it. I can separate the bindings as far as they'll go but I've got Hyperlite Parks and they use the Claw system those of you who are familiar and the board rack just pushes straight into them and tears them up....Any help without buying racks or taking off bindings would help.

im guessing you have a narrow stance. if you dont wanna buy different racks, you will have to widen your stance so that the racks wont get stuck on the claw. thats the only way to fix this problem that i can think of. maybe someone has a better way.

Wow, that sucks... If it's new, try telling your Dealer the situation and see if they have any other types of racks in stock there. They might just exchange them, who knows.

I know on some grom boards with narrow stances, they can't fit in wakeboard racks. If you have the Mako racks, they are 9 1/2" wide, which is pretty standard. Measure the distance between your inside claws and post it. I would think that if you have the Parks 133, and your bindings are all the way out, unless the claws are extremely large, you should have no problems fitting your board into racks.

We love the Mako racks but I did have to open up my kids boards stance a little to fit. All racks are made about the same width so Grom's boards are normally a problem with any rack.

...Have you checked out the new "Battle Rack" from WAKESIDE. You should consider these before you purchase.

They look really sweet, are those by Titan? If so the swivel collar that let's you rotate those into the boat are sweet.
