Apparatus for securing a surf board in a truckbed

摘要

A surfboard is secured within a truck bed allowing ease of insertion and removal. A Z-shaped bar defines a proximal bar portion, a medial bar portion and a distal bar portion. A clamp is engaged with the proximal bar portion. A compliant sleeve covers the distal bar portion, and an elastic cord formed with loops at opposing ends is stretched over the distal bar portion. The clamp is fastened to a side flange of the truck bed and the distal portion is positioned on top of the tailgate so that a surfboard placed into the truck bed rests at one end on the bed of the truck and is held between the sleeve and the cord at the other end while resting on the sleeve. The cord safely clamps the surfboard in place.
