Default Wake board/Wake skate Rack

Has anyone tried to make a wake board/ wake skate rack? I'm trying to think of how to make one. Maybe someone has or tried to take the rack used on boats and made it fit the rollcage. Post pics if anyone has. Thanks Guys.

I think you could buy a mount for a wakeboard boat and attach it to the roll bar when the top is off. Or with hard top on use the yakima roof rack system for snowboards. Thats what I have. Sorry no pics at this time. Top is off

do you know what size our cage is? I was looking at this rack. Tower Clamp Size Available: 1 1/2", 1 5/8", 1 3/4", 1 7/8", 2", 2 1/4", 2 3/8", 2 1/2"

Which one one do you think?

Somewhere on here there is a pic of a Tony Hawk JK with boards on the rear bars. It looked to me like standard Thule snowboard racks modified to fit the sport cage.

Edit: take a look at post #6 https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...amp-THEIR-JK-s!

The rear roll bar on my JKU is 2", the removable bar between the A & B pillars is 1-3/4"
this might be an option. Skylon X-Rack
