Aluminess Surf Hooks
If you're a surfer or boarder, then carrying boards to the beach is a daily chore. Make this task super-easy by mounting Aluminess Surf Hooks and surf poles to your van. With a surf pole on the outside of your van, you can easily mount boards for carrying outside, no need to dry or clean the board, or re-arrange everything in your van to get your boards inside.
Surf poles mount to a roof rack on the top, and to the van's pinch weld on the bottom. They can be used in pairs, or you can have a single surf pole with a side ladder.
Surf poles require a pair of Surf Hooks for each board you want to carry. Surf poles are specific to each make and model of van for correct height and fit. You can use tough lockable Kanu-Lock straps to secure your surfboards to the surf hooks while driving.
