Water Sports Flag Holder for Wakeboard Towers

It’s been difficult for boaters with wakeboard towers to display water sports flags effectively, until now! Instead of manually holding the flag, stick it into the holder and your flag will fly high so that other boaters can see it. It also frees your hands to tend to other activities. This one-size-fits-all water sports flag holder is designed to attach easily and fit perfectly on all OEM and aftermarket wakeboard towers. It is crafted from billet aluminum, then polished and anodized. Stainless steel hardware, polymer collars and adhesive backed pads are provided for quick and easy installation onto all wakeboard towers, 1 5/8” to 2 7/8” diameter, including Malibu’s new elliptical Illusion towers. No drilling required!

Looks similar to the one I bought. Probably is and my dealer charged me an arm and a leg for it. However, looks like it will work out well.

We have a similar flag holder...attached to the tower with a clamp and is quite stable. The flag we use has a foam handle that slides perfectly into the flag holder. We like it.

We got ours at the local watersports dealer...I think it was $20.

I have the same flag holder. I unfortunatly paid something like $60.00 for it last year at a boat show. We love it. We mounted it high on the tower, so when we are just floating around the boat, the flag is flying high above for everyone to see. We don't really use it when were just riding. It's easier to just hold the flag. I.M.O. Buy it. You'll love it.

Where do you get them? It is always a fight with my kids to who is going to hold the flag.

They either fight because is their turn to hold or they fight because they got tired of holding and want to pass it on to another.... :D

[eks]

$50 is a small price to pay for some piece of mind! :)

[buffman]

Dealer for mine...

[eks]

Is this it?

But they do look nice.

How does it look installed?

Does it have another clamp for the tower that is not showing on the picture?

[coach07]

Newt Products makes one that works without having to buy a new fat flag.

The clamps for DBOT5 racks and stuff are all the same. They are interchangeable. They have inserts that make them work with various size tubes. The item will come with several inserts to choose from. For 2" inch tube, you use biggest insert, for 3" tube you use none. Here is a pic of our surfrack up close on our old Tige OEM tower.

You can barely see flag holder on upper right on this pic, but hard to see. Don't have it on new tower yet, going on tomorrow. It works with any flag pretty much, but dbot also makes a flag with billet handle.

Thanks Ragboy.

[buffman]

Right above my sons head no flag in it but you get the idea...

Curious about the dbot5 flag holder as well, I know it works with their tower clamp, but don’t know if the clamp is included with the flag holder.
Of course, if it is not, it becomes really expensive…

It does look cool, however.

[eks]

Thanks!

I actually like the one on buffman's boat, and the only reason is that it is smaller.

[eks]

Buffman, can you rotate the flag holder in case you want to install it in a different place?

[phirates]

Ragboy, did the flag holder come with the clamp?

[buffman]

mine did... and it barely fit my sampson tower....

[ragboy]

Ragboy, did the flag holder come with the clamp?

Yes. And on the wakeside description, it says it does.

Clamp: This Unique and exclusive design of gear/spline system allows for minute angle adjustments. This clamp and three separate inserts are included with all products. Inserts allow fit to multiple tower diameters up to 2 7/8 inches and 2 in and 3 in ovals out of the box.

Airhead copied DVX on this. He took it to CHINA and made it cheaper. The original manufacture DVX is located in Utah. He is a young kid competing in a fierce world. He makes the flags and holder. I love mine. I can get them for you for better pricing than that web site. PM me and I will get you set up.

[SPBFAN]

tsnowakeflake72 I sent you a PM.

[whitlock87]

The two lakes i go to in LA county, will not let you use them.
The flag must be held by a person, or you get a ticket.:eek:

[ragboy]

That is true, but we use them when we are surfing, since we are going so slow. We don't use for wakeboarding. Very few people surf at our lake, and so we put the flag up the whole time.
