How to Store Your Paddleboard at Home | SUP Storage Tips

One of the biggest questions you may have when buying your first paddleboard is the issue of storage: "where on earth will I put a 10 foot (or longer) board?" 

Some people opt to buy an inflatable paddleboard for this very reason - because it deflates to store compactly when not in use. But lack of space should not be a deciding factor in whether you choose to get a rigid board, even if you live in a small place. SUP storage racks make use of space you didn't even realize you had. There are so many different kinds of paddle board racks that maximize the use of space, like SUP ceiling racks, freestanding SUP racks, outdoor SUP racks, and more.

Outdoor Dock Storage Racks for SUPs and Kayaks | Marine Grade Deck and Pier Racks

It's that time of year to get your outdoor sports gear organized and ready to use. If you're lucky enough to have a storage option right at the water's edge, check out the outdoor dock, deck, pier and marina racks we've got for kayaks and paddleboards. These will save you the trips back and forth lugging your heavy boats around, saving you more strength for paddle strokes.

A key with outdoor storage racks is that they must be made of heavy duty materials, finished with an appropriate coating to hold up to outdoor exposure, and include installation and mounting hardware with the same weather proof resistance. Some of the best outdoor storage option materials are aluminum, powder coated steel, stainless steel, or galvanized steel. We rate most of our outdoor racks as freshwater storage (aluminum, powder coated steel) or saltwater storage (stainless steel, galvanized steel).

Best Way to Store a Paddleboard (SUP) | Wall Racks

With all the excitement over picking out your SUP, paddle, and other gear, storage of your paddleboard is often neglected.  If you’re used to surfing or other board sports, then transporting or storing your board might be as simple as throwing it in the trunk or standing it up in the corner of your room. However, because of their size, storing and transporting your SUP is a whole different beast. Additionally, with most SUPs costing $1000 or more, there is serious incentive to protect your investment and have proper storage and transportation methods in place.

SUP Rack Storage for 3 Paddle Boards | Customer Photo and Review

SUP Storage.  If you're looking for a rack to store multiple paddle boards, check out this SUP rack.  Made out of steel for sturdy, secure storage for those expensive SUPs, the rack has 3 arms = SUP storage for 3 boards.  The arms are padded with high density foam to make sure that you don't scratch or ding your paddle boards when storing or taking them out for your next ride.

The rack is designed to accommodate all types of paddle boards, as the rack arms are spaced 11.5 inches apart, so some very thick boards still fit.  The rack arms themselves are 21 inches wide, so generally paddle boards 35 inches wide fit onto the arms.  

Check out the picture below, showing how one of our customers, Bob, set up the SUP rack.  He stacked two of the racks together, creating SUP storage for 6 boards.  Now imagine how much space those boards would take up without the rack...

Here's what Bob had to say about this SUP rack:

We had to make a quick purchase to solve a storage problem for our SUPs and the Store Your Board option worked great!  We layered two racks one above the other and now have ample storage for 6 boards (see picture).  We did go above the recommended total weight but felt the rack was of sturdy construction and we anchored into studs for secure mounting.
