Default Looking for a Rack system

So to make a long story short. I am going to be purchasing 2 stand up paddle boards. One is 12” , the other is 11.5”. I only have a soft top in my JKU 4 door and I don’t really want to spend an arm and a leg for a full rack system. What I like so far is the Lange Originals The Rack. The reason why I like this is because I can take it off when the season is done. My concern is that the boards might not make it to the bars to be able to tie down. I am hoping that some of you out there might have the system and can show some pictures. I also hoping some of you can made be also give me other ideas on other racks out there that might be easy to install and not cost that much. I know there are some really good systems, but I don’t feel like spending an arm and a leg at this time. Any idea and help would be great.

Here is my take, if you are going paddle boarding the weather is nice right? Save yourself some money and drop the soft top and strap the boards to the roll bars.... Easy peasy

That's exactly what I've done all this summer. I put 2 boards on my roll bar & strap them down with no problems.


It looks pretty cool too.

This is what I ended going with for my SUP on my JKUR.
