ARTICLE: Sports Gear Rack
  Issue #301 - June 2007
If you’re into outdoor sports, you know that recreational gear is bulky, awkward, and difficult to store. That means bikes, boats, skis, and other gear can quickly take over the entire garage. And although it’s possible to get special hangers that hold individual items, there hasn’t been one that holds everything — until now.

Yakima, a company that has made vehicle rack systems for years, has a new system that makes it easy to corral your gear. The system is called Ground Control, and it’s unlike any garage storage system you’ve seen.
The heart of the system is a set of three oval-shaped rings made of durable aluminum tubing. The rings mount on tall, vertical supports that rest on adjustable feet. Upper mounting plates and center struts connect the supports securely to the wall.

This setup lets you mount a variety of handy accessories to hold your gear. It’s these accessories that turn the Ground Control into what may well be the most versatile storage system around.
