[0002] Surfing, as a popular water project, its equipment transportation has been the focus of the industry.

[0003] As disclosed in the prior art, surfers often travel with surfboards to destinations more suitable for surfing. Surfboards can be quite long and are usually not completely stowed in a vehicle, so that a portion of the surfboard will extend out of the vehicle's window, which is dangerous.

[0004] Surfboards, which are usually wetted with salt water, must be securely mounted on the exterior of a vehicle. Mounting the surfboards in this way prevents them from acting as sails due to the wind created by the speed of the vehicle, which in turn threatens the safety of the driver. Prior art surfboard mounts do not adequately address these issues.

[0005] Surfboard racks mounted on the roof of a vehicle are known in the prior art, however loading or unloading a surfboard using these racks is not always easy, and if the surfboard is mounted flat on the roof and the tendency is to lift the board, wind from the speed of the vehicle can reach underneath the surfboard. Examples of these racks can be found in US Patent No. 5,884,824 and US Patent No. 6,685,070. Figure 9
