I would stay away from Nvert. They are pretty cheap. I also know that CC had a deal with them to use them on all 2004 boats and they backed out. I saw a few too many quality issues with them.

Agreed. Stay away from NVert.

Is NVert even in business anymore?

I have some Nvert clamps that I have attached to the crossbar right below the flight clips. They work ok for surfboards and skates, but are extremely flimsy.

After one year of use mine are almost ruined, and I don’t expect them to make it through the full season next year. They bend easily and the rubber separators come off and fall in the lake often. I read of several people who had similar issues on Wakeworld, but I assumed they just didn’t take care of their stuff properly. After experiencing it first hand, I found that is clearly not the case.

When I ordered my racks Nvert had a difficult time getting me the correct sized clamp to fit the lower crossbar. They were always friendly, but it took them 2 months and 3 attempts before they were finally able to get me the correct size clamps.

Flight Clips win hands down. I think the Flight Clips are the best board racks out there, they just need to devise a way to fit more than 2 on a tower.

Despite the quality differences, its is pretty hard to just communicate w/ NVert.
