New 2011 Clubman S tomorrow!!

Hello!
We are brand new to the forum!
They are delivering our Horizon Blue "Clubby" tomorrow morning!

We are getting the factory roof racks installed. We have three 9ft longboard surfboards. Any tips on securing them for a road trip? Do we need a fairing for the rack?
Considering the INNO "lockerboard" or homemade strap system

Any help and pics appreciated.

Thanks!

Congrats on your new clubbie...You will need crossbars and straps...I use the Mini Crossbars and yakima straps. But, thule bars work with adapters as well as Yakimas...No Fairing, but get a small antenna...

Surfink,
Thanks so much for the info. Do you think we'll be ok with 9footers?
