Default Experience with Surfboard/Rack + GS

Hey Guys,

I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with a good surfboard rack for their GS. Pros and Cons?? Thanks in advance.

i think its sweet that you're going to be tooling around in a GS with a surfboard on the top and bringing it to the beach and stuff. hahaa. post up a pic with the board on the roof when you make this happen, i believe it will be a first.

athere is no way i would put a surfboard rack on my car.. i can only imagine how dirty it would get and the straps would wear down the moldings on the dorrs faster. I surf every so often and just use my mom's car for that.. shes got a mb c320 but its a piece of cr*p so i dont care.. I hate getting sand in the car as well as water on the roof of the car when it is unnecessary..

I tottally agree with you beez. I just wanted to see if anyone had any experience with it and safely use it.
