Hey Thanks for the tips i'll try them out when I get my board!!

Chris

: If you have a short board (6'-7') mount a 1-1/12"
: wooden dowel across the back roll hoops with
: duct tape (there goes the paint!) and wrape a
: couple of bungees over the board at the back and
: thread a nylon cord through the front top latch
: hole and place a heavy towel there to protect the
: rubber wind lacing. If the you cant thread the
: hole up there, nose dive the board in the passenger wheel well area and support it on the
: dowel rod. Sad thing about this: no passengers,
: no posers, no girls!!! For long boards, you
: need a nylon stay at the front license plate to
: hold the nose down in the wind.
: An alternate plan would be to mount a bike
: rack at the rear bumper /hitch and have a tranverse surf board mount as long as the board
: is not over 7'. This will create a long of drag
: and you will experience some unusual ground effects over 75 mph!! Never , Never use the
: rag top to support anything!!!!!!!! a easy
: solution to all this is: 1. find a friend to carry
: your stick 2. rent a board or 3. give up surfing!
: Good Luck!!!
