MBB SURFBOARD RACKS
Surfing is so much better when you don’t have to drive to the beach! We were frustrated with the racks on the market, they lacked quick releases on the bars and were wobbly with long boards, and that’s how the MBB Surfboard Rack was born.
QUICK RELEASE BARS AND STABLE MOUNTING
Our racks are based on our patent pending quick release bars. The splined bar design means that a simple push button is all that is needed to secure the bars to the mounts on your frame. Just push a button to remove when you get home from your surf session. When you are ready to go again, just slide them back in till they click into place.
STABLE MOUNTING IN 3 CONFIGURATIONS
The racks come in 3 versions: Longboard, Shortboard, and Moped. Choose the one that suits your needs. All racks are manufactured from aluminum and stainless steel to ensure that they won’t rust out on you in coastal environments. Hardware has been designed for maximum versatility to fit just about any bike, and to work with just about any surfboard. If you have question about how the racks might fit on your bike, send us a quick photo, we’re happy to check it out and advise on the best rack for your ride.
LONGBOARD RACKS
Our Longboard Racks mount right to your frame, making them super stable even with longboards and even stand up paddle boards (SUPs) up to about 25 lbs. The racks work great with shortboards too. The front mount is designed to secure right to your bike frame headtube, one of the strongest places on your frame. The rear mount can either be mounted to your seatpost, or a conventional rear cargo rack if you have one (the box comes with hardware to support both options)
Our longboard rack installation video gives you a full run down of the rack features and mounting options, give it a quick watch to see how the racks would fit on your bike!

Our Shortboard Rack installation video gives you a full run down of the installation procedure for the Shortboard Racks. It’s a short video because these racks are super simple!
MOPED RACKS
Not everyone gets to live a short bike ride from their break. If you have to cover some more ground, or just love zipping around on your moped or scooter, our Moped Racks are for you. We’ve adapted our same quick release bars with some unique mounting hardware specially adapted to work with tubular cargo racks common to moped and scooters.
Our Moped Rack installation video gives you a full run down of the installation procedure for the Moped Racks. We went all out on this one to show the wide range of installation options supported by this hardware. If you still have questions after you watch the video, send us a few pics of your ride and we’ll tell you how we would recommend installing on it –
INSTALLATION
USING OUR RACKS WITH SUPS
Our longboard racks are well suited for use with SUPs with the following limitations:
We recommend the racks for boards up to about 25 lbs. Heavier boards are hard to ride with off the side of the bike, andwill exceed the load capacity of the bars.
SUPs are wide and you will need clearance under your handlebar. For the most part, this means you can only carry a SUP with a beach cruiser with a high rise set of cruiser bars.
The standard bar sets have just under 4 inches of clearance for your board. Many SUPs are in the 4-5 inch width range. The good news is that it is relatively easy to bend the lower U shaped portion of the bars open to fit wider SUPs
If you have an inflatable SUP, it is probably more like 6 inches thick. We offer a set of Replacement Lower Bars for use with Inflatable SUPs
MBB SURFBOARD RACK INSTRUCTIONS
In addition to the Installation Videos above, you can also check out the printed instructions that come with each of the racks below:
This board is sturdy & easy to balance on but I’m editing my review to say it’s a bit challenging to put together and tote to the water I’m 5’5 & 127 lbs also, I can feel the foam topping is pealing up at the handle insert as I tote it.Over all I would recommend it for convenience and ease of balancing on in the water.
I have this installed on a wavestorm. Super easy install, only need a drill and a screwdriver. The board is a lot more responsive and maneuverable while having better hold and control in steeper stuff. Overall, it’s a steal for the price.
My new SanO 9'6 is SOOOOO FUN! I just took it out for its second session, and I was catching so many waves! I got comments on how easy I made it look, and 'What kind of board is that?' This is a step up in length for me (my previous longboard was 9'0), and I was a little bit worried it would be 'too big'. But it responds great with my back foot over the fin (I have it set up as a single fin with the fin fully forward in the box) and I was going left or right with ease in knee to waist high glass. I am officially in love with the SanO 9'6! And with no need to wax and great grip, it is so convenient!
So far I am loving it. It’s light and small enough to fit into my VW ID 4 sedan. I have been using it primarily to get fit with paddle strength in preparation for longer surf trip.
Cool product. Anxious to see how it performs in decent sized surf. Included future fins are a great value; although I thought it also included a free leash. Still awesome little Zipper!
I have not had a chance to try it, but it looks terrific and arrived intact I referred your brand to Ireland trader surf and Stewart gentleman named Dave. I’m sure he’ll be reaching out to you. I would also like to acquire some more boards possibly being able to resell them for promotions with different beverage brands give me a call when you’re free up at 954-817-2805 or shoot me an email at charles@allisongroup.com, kind regards

I love the board. The only thing that I wanted to tell you guys is that I needed to add wax on the sides because without it, it can be very slippery, I had two bad experiences there. Also it's a heavy board... but I'm getting stronger ;)
I’ve been really happy with my 8' Formula Fun. It feels sturdy and well made, and I like that the foam is at least less environmentally harmful than a lot of traditional surfboard foams.
Compared with my Catch Surf, it feels narrower and more like a mid length than a big, loggy foam board. I also tried an Almond before and found it a little too buoyant, so this feels like a really nice middle ground. Plenty of float, but still feels planted and responsive.
The deck grip is great too, definitely better than my Catch Surf. I honestly don’t feel any need for wax.
My only complaint is the center handle. It’s nice to have, but the board isn’t perfectly balanced around it, so carrying it one handed puts more strain on your hand than I expected.
Overall, really happy with it. Easy and forgiving without feeling overly bulky or floaty.
Occasional surfer that’s ridden mostly longboard. Got the 7’10 to help transition to shorter board and transport on plane. Takes some used to getting up vs 9’6 san
O, but still floats and paddles well.
The order/shipping process was very frustrating. I ordered and paid for the board in full on 6/17 and was promised it would arrive by 6/22. It did not deliver in time for my step-sons fathers day gift from me and he was not able to take it on their family vacation. Very frustrating and embarrassing for me as a step dad trying to be a good guy- The board finally did arrive and is nice-
Got it out to Oceanside pier T4 today, first time to really get the feel of it. Seems very stable (I need more practice), and paddles very well, I was impressed at how easy it was to paddle. So far I am very happy with it.
I love the board! It’s easy to assemble, take apart and is very light so easy to carry when assembled. I thought it advertised a carrying case for when not assembled but it didn’t come with one which is my only negative feedback.
I will be reuniting with the ocean and the sea after a 30-year Hiatus of first lesson first wave on the Hawaiian island beach of Waikiki. I look forward to surfing the beautiful Waters of New Jersey with my dear friend Edmund as my beautiful guide back into the surfing lifestyle experience healing on this with the Earth.
The board is great! It’s easy to put together and take apart. Paddles and maneuvers really well. It feels more like a hard board and not a foamie. I have inflatables and a foamie board and this is the best of both for transportation.
If there was an option for a 1 piece board I would invest in that and replace my foamie. I use the formula fun Tohoe and have my kids use the other boards.
Pretty much just a cheap piece of styrofoam that cost 600 bucks. Mine arrived already dinged they did offer me my money back if I sent it back or 100 dollars back if I kept it. To avoid the hassle of shipping it back I took the 100 dollars and now I really wish I would have sent it back. It damages VERY easily and do mean VERY! First time out chunks of foam are coming out of the rails just from gripping them and it has tear in rail about a inch and half deep towards the tail. I know any board can ding but these things just have no durability at all, like I said don't be fooled by their marketing terms it's basically just styrofoam and cost way too much for what it is! Also if you're larger like 190 pounds or more this board doesn't offer enough flotation and surface area to carry and distribute your weight. Definitely not the board for me, wish I would have sent it back!
