Skylon X2 Rack: Product Review

Skylon is a US based company that has been around for 30 years. They have great customer service and most of their products are made in the US. However, their products are a little on the pricey side but you pay for quality. All Skylon products have a 1 year manufacturers warranty. We have yet to have a customer need to use the warranty.

Skylon Wakeboard Tower Racks

Skylon has one line of wakeboard racks, the X2 line. Lets talk about them.

All of the above racks come in a brushed and polished finish, which means they come in a brushed finish with polished edges. This is a very different finish than you see with other manufacturers and it looks great. These racks have liners to protect your highend boards. Skylon is one of the only manufacturers we carry that offer adapters for some of the OEM Towers. Listed below are the clamps and adapters they offer.

  • Axis Wake Research Tower
  • Centurion Gladiator Lower Adapter 
  • Moomba OZ Tower 
  • Illusion X &  Evolution Adapter 
  • 2.25" & 2.375" Rack Clamp
  • 1.875" & 2.0" Rack Clamp
Overall you are getting what you pay for with these racks. Definitely good racks but not a recommendation for the frugal buyer.

If you have any questions please contact Wake Essentials or Skylon

    Does anyone know if when selecting the tube rack mount, if the angle of the tube mount is adjustable? My tower does not sit level - in fact it is like a 25-30° angle.

      Thank you for your inquiry. We have contacted Skylon they stated its 100% adjustable that way he can adjust it to match the plain of the boat.

    Thank you for you inquiry.
    Unfortunately, we are unable to ship to Australia at this time.
    I recommend contacting Skylon directly to inquiry about this clamp.
    They may be able to further assist you.

    Do these racks work on a Skylon Swoop tower?
