    Surfboard tines for Alpha Z racks?

    The tines on the Alpha Z fixed racks are held on by two allen head bolts. Does anyone make tines that will hold surfboards? I'm thinking about cutting my own out of Starboard, or having some made by a local machine shop out of aluminum, but if they're available off the shelf it might just be easier to buy them.

    Thanks!

      They are offered as an option from Tige, check with your local dealer, im sure they would be willing to order you a set.

        If you’re looking for the surf racks from Tige, They sell the tines and swivel rack as a whole assembly for like $500ish. However if you call Eagle Marine in FT Worth TX they know a machine shop who will just machine the tines for larger "surf" boards that will simply bolt onto the existing mount.

        I had some ordered from them, and then bought a CWB Ride Wake surf Board just to find out it actually fit into my existing wakeboard racks! Had to cancel the order since my factory racks were fine as long as you go with a skim-style surfboard.

          I have the static (fixed) racks and they're fine for me. All I need are the wider-spaced tines/forks.

          My Inland Surf Infectious - definitely a skim-style board - will not fit into my Tige factory wakeboard tines. It might if I pulled out the rubber gasketing material that protects the boards from the aluminum tines, but I'm not doing that. Perhaps I have older racks or something.

          My Inland Surfer Yellow Loogey is a surf-style board and definitely won't fit no matter what I do to the existing tines.

          Thanks!

            I also saw a few new boats at the dealership with a pocket sewn into the top of the roof the bimini to store a surf board. I hope to be adding this option soon, then I at least still have room for 4 boards.
