Whether you’re drying your board, gearing up for the next session, or crashing for the night, this rack keeps your ride tidy and your quiver close.

Full Description

Meet the Magnetic Surfboard Rack—the easiest, cleanest way to store and display your board on the road. Designed for van-life surfers, weekend warriors, and coastal explorers, this rack turns your van into a rolling surf station.
Built from marine-grade materials and powered by heavy-duty rare-earth magnets, each arm attaches securely to your van’s steel exterior. Soft rubber padding prevents scratches while holding your board steady through wind and movement.

Installation is effortless—just place, hang, and surf. No drilling, screws, or permanent mounts required. The rack detaches instantly when you’re ready to drive or pack up, and stores flat inside your vehicle. Perfect for drying wetsuits, keeping sand out, or showcasing your favorite board after a session.

Whether you drive a Sprinter, Transit, or camper conversion, this rack fits the van-life rhythm—minimal gear, maximum freedom. Tested on the road across Baja, Big Sur, and beyond, the Magnetic Surfboard Rack is built to keep up with your adventures.

Founder's Note

After one too many surf trips with boards face-down in the dirt or jammed inside the van, it hit me — there had to be a better way. Beach camping meant sand everywhere and $2,000 boards leaning against bumpers, getting wax-smeared and dinged.

The SRF-CDY (Surf Caddy) Magnetic Rack was born from those weekends — a clean, quick, drill-free way to hang boards safely outside the rig. We needed it strong, fast to mount, and easy to stash. After testing up and down the California coast, we landed on a rack that works as hard as you do: sturdy, simple, and ready in seconds.

See you out there,

Van with Magnetic Surfboard Rack for beach camping

Product FAQs

Can I drive with the Magnetic Surfboard Rack attached?

No — it’s a violation of DOT regulations. The rack is designed for stationary use only, such as at your campsite or beach spot, to keep your boards off the sand and out of your van.

How much weight can it hold?

Each rack pair can securely hold up to 60 lbs when properly mounted on a clean steel surface.

What vehicles does it work with?

It works with any steel-bodied vehicle, including Sprinter, Transit, and ProMaster vans. Always double-check your vehicle with a magnet before ordering — newer F-150s and similar aluminum-bodied vehicles will not work.

What size boards fit?

The hook opening is 4 inches wide, making it ideal for most surfboards and many SUPs (as long as they’re under 4" thick).

Will it damage my vehicle?

The magnets are rubber-coated to protect your paint. However, it’s important that both the magnets and vehicle surface are clean and free of sand or debris before mounting. Dirt or grit between surfaces could cause minor scratches.

Can it hold shortboards too?

Yes! You can tilt the hook at an angle for a vertical shortboard lean or use a pair of racks to hold a longboard horizontally.
