Rosewell wakeboard racks - rubber marking up boards

[bteeter]

Hi all,

I've got a 2019 Craz with the standard Rosewell wake board racks.

Last season I noticed some black marks on a couple boards after a day at the lake. This season has been much worse. I've noticed the black rubber covering the "tines" is wearing off on my boards. My boat has always been stored inside or under covered storage out of the sun. Is anyone else having problems with the rubber breaking down and wearing off on boards?

I know I can purchase new new tines but has anyone found a less expensive solution (vs. cleaning my boards after every outing?)

Fortunately the black marks come off with some elbow grease. Just expected these to last longer given the boat is out of the sun 98% of its life.

Recently I read about someone refurbishing their tines. There was a product they used for the inside of the tines (rubber) - peeled out the old & and glued in the new. Something like /14 o-ring cord.

I have also read where peeps have used heat shrink over the entire section of the tine.

I just need to figure out where I read that on social media . . . .
