Side Surf & Paddleboard Hooks for Vans (Pair)
Secure your surfboards and paddleboards the smart way with these Side Surf & Paddleboard Hooks, designed specifically for van life, weekend adventurers, and full-time travelers. This system allows you to mount and transport boards safely without climbing onto your roof, keeping your gear accessible, protected, and road-ready.
Designed to mount directly to an Aluminess ladder or surf pole, these hooks offer a flexible solution for vans with or without a ladder setup. If you don’t run a ladder, simply mount the hooks using two surf poles and enjoy the same secure, streamlined storage.
When not in use, the hooks swivel inward toward the van, reducing overall profile and improving aerodynamics. Built from corrosion-resistant aluminum with stainless steel hardware, these hooks are made to withstand harsh coastal environments and long road trips.
Sold as a pair, this setup provides balanced, secure support for your boards and pairs perfectly with Kanulock tie downs for added theft protection.
Whether you’re heading to the beach for the weekend or living on the road full time, these hooks keep your boards safe, secure, and always ready for the next session.
