How to choose your snowboard wall mount
Start with the width of your board, because the bindings stay on. A freestyle true twin sits around 140–155 cm, an all-mountain board around 150–162 cm, a freeride or powder board up to 170 cm — and the rack needs to clear the highback and baseplate without forcing them against the wall. That's why our mounts come in sizes S to XL: match the cradle to the waist of the board. Oak is dense and rigid, so it holds a 5–7 kg board flat with no sag over a long off-season. A splitboard works too, treated as a single board on the rack. Decide between horizontal display, which shows the topsheet, and vertical, which is the space-saver.
Vertical vs horizontal snowboard rack
Horizontal is the display orientation: the board lies flat, the topsheet graphic faces the room, and a single deck becomes a wall feature in a living room or chalet. Vertical is the space-saver: the board stands on its tail, takes minimal wall width and tucks into a hallway, an entrance or a garage corner. Both keep the base off the wall and the steel edges clear, which is what protects the board through the summer. With more than one board, a horizontal display for the graphic board and a vertical mount for the everyday all-mountain works well.
Why solid oak rather than a metal hook
A bare metal hook can chip a topsheet and looks out of place indoors; solid oak does neither. Each rack is shaped from a dense hardwood and sealed with beeswax and linseed oil, a finish that shrugs off the damp a board brings back from the mountain. The board hangs clear of the wall, so the base never rubs and the edges dry instead of rusting. The look is the chalet aesthetic done properly — warm wood framing the topsheet, not a utility bracket bolted to the plaster.
Caring for your oak snowboard rack
Maintenance is minimal: wipe the oak dry and re-oil it lightly once a year. After the last session, let the board air-dry before it goes on the rack, and give it a summer storage wax to keep the base and edges happy through the off-season. Hanging the board unloaded — no weight pressing on the camber — preserves the flex for next winter. The oak handles a damp board without swelling, so the rack and the deck both come through the summer in good shape.
A gift for snowboarders
A handmade oak snowboard mount is a gift a rider keeps for years. It suits the friend whose board lives behind the sofa all summer, the collector who treats a topsheet as artwork, or anyone moving into a place with a wall to fill. Shipped in 100% recyclable packaging with free delivery over €100, it's a thoughtful birthday or Christmas gift for snowboarders.
