Check out the latest "Wakesurfing Magazine", Winter/Spring 2009 edition. Page 23.

New style that goes on top of your tower. Looks very nice, I like them because of the padding and the fact that the boards sit flat so no pressure points.

BTW The service from DIY is fantastic. I ordered the forks last Tuesday and they were on my doorstep in Montana Friday morning.
Just have to get them on the boat and the ice off the water!

I wasn't sure of the price, but compared to what I've seen for some of the fork type racks, might not be a bad buy.

I hear that but it like like they would be pretty easy to fabricate something similiar for a lot cheaper. (Of coarse I dont have the skills for that..haha)

Your probably right, some self sticking paddeed tape some formed aluminum trays and a couple standard speaker clamps or bimini clamps and your set.

This may sound crazy....but it works great:
I carefully cut the middle finger off one set of my factory racks. I have a TWP F-18 and it fits perfect in there with the factory bungees. Believe it or not, it looks great. The brushed alum is easily filed smooth on the edges and I managed to replace the stock rubber tubing so that it keeps the board in place. Total cost $0.
I will have to look for a good photo of the finished product. The rack bascially looks like Ed G's DIY set up.

Ed - I don't have any IS boards...but from what I have seen of them there is no way two would fit in my set-up. I can just fit my TWP board and the ol' Broadcast for beginners learning on.
Which IS boards do you have? I'd realy like to try that Quad Fin Loogy. I also really like the looks of their 2009 boards. That "Sweet Spot" looks...well...sweet. But at $900 or $1200 Canadian dollars....I'm not so sure. That's a lot of gas money.
