    New wakeboard rack recommendation for FCT 2

    Thinking of replacing or maybe just adding a modern day wakeboard rack to my FCT 2. Anyone have recommendations? I want something that articulates so I can easily access the boards.

    Not looking for super high end. Just better than the old one mounted to the crossbar.

        Following this. Also in the market, not as worried about swivel function but same tower

          I purchased a Krypt rack - not this one and no pivot - and had a few general impressions.

          - it has all the look of Chinese / India type metal work. Finish was polished but had typical wavey mirror finish of non-milled lower quality metal work.
          - it's a unisize mount - you have to insert rubber bushings to fit the diameter of the your tower. The clamp is not a curated size. I never like this.
          - everything looked workable and it could do the job. Meaning that it would hold a board, mount to the tower, etc.
          - company was responsive to questions and generally very helpful.

          I ended up returning the one I ordered a (combo wakeboard / kneeboard rack) as the rack didn't correctly hold my thin type kneeboard. Tine spacing was off. Return was accepted without issue.

          If I could, I'd prefer a US made product but haven't found a good option near the price they offer. If really needed a rack , I'd probably consider one again as the price seems fair enough and I don't need $1500+ racks on my 2004 boat.

          Hope this helps.

            Thanks for the feedback. I have not had a chance to email my questions to them about this rack. But you gave me one or two more to add to my list.

            Monster Tower has some racks, but not very attractive in my opinion. I'm also not spending $1500 on a rack. I wish there were more choices that checked more boxes for me.
