Frequently Asked Questions About Gravity Grabber

Q1: What is a Gravity Grabber ski rack?

A: Gravity Grabber is a wall-mounted storage system designed for skis, snowboards, and other long gear. It uses wide, padded, spring-loaded arms that gently grip equipment without creating damaging pressure points. Unlike traditional hooks or wooden racks, Gravity Grabber spreads weight evenly, keeping skis safe while saving floor space.

Q2: Does Gravity Grabber damage skis?

A: No. The wide, padded grip distributes pressure across a large surface area, preventing scratches, dents, or warping. You can secure skis anywhere along their length—including near the bindings, where they’re strongest—so the rack adapts to your storage preferences.

Q3: How does Gravity Grabber compare to other ski racks?

A: Traditional wooden or metal racks often force skis to hang by the tips or rest on narrow slots, which can stress the ski profile or cause scratches. Gravity Grabber holds skis upright, evenly supported, and protected. While it doesn’t lock like a car rack, it offers excellent indoor security for garages, basements, and mudrooms.

Q4: Can I install Gravity Grabber on any vehicle?

A: No. Gravity Grabber is designed for indoor wall mounting, not for vehicles. For car transport, you’ll need a roof rack or hitch-mounted carrier specifically built for skis. Gravity Grabber is ideal for home or cabin storage, keeping gear safe when not in use.

Q5: What else can Gravity Grabber hold besides skis?

A: Gravity Grabber is highly versatile. It works for:

• Snowboards and ski poles

• Fishing rods and paddles

• Yard tools like rakes and shovels

• Sports gear like lacrosse sticks, baseball bats, or hockey sticks

• Scooters and extension poles

This adaptability makes it a year-round garage organization tool.

Q6: How much weight can a Gravity Grabber hold?

A: Each Gravity Grabber unit is built to handle the weight of skis or snowboards with ease. While exact limits may vary by installation surface, most setups easily support multiple pieces of gear without strain. For heavy-duty loads, ensure the rack is mounted into studs or with proper anchors.

Q7: Is Gravity Grabber easy to install?

A: Yes. Gravity Grabber comes with straightforward mounting instructions. Most people install it in under 20 minutes using basic tools. For maximum stability, it’s best to mount directly into wall studs.

Q8: Can Gravity Grabber be used in small spaces?

A: Absolutely. Because it mounts on the wall, it frees up valuable floor space in garages, mudrooms, or even small apartments. It’s a popular solution for skiers living in condos or mountain-town housing where storage is limited.

Q9: Can Gravity Grabber help organize a whole garage?

A: Yes. Many users install multiple units side by side to create a full gear wall. Combined with accessories like bump bars (which protect walls from ski tails), Gravity Grabber becomes part of a larger garage organization system that adapts with the seasons.

Q10: Is Gravity Grabber only for winter gear?

A: No. While it’s designed with skis and snowboards in mind, Gravity Grabber’s versatility makes it just as useful in summer. You can swap skis for paddles, fishing rods, or yard tools, ensuring your wall storage never sits unused.

The Gravity Grabber ski rack is more than a place to hang skis—it’s a versatile, year-round storage solution. From protecting skis and snowboards in winter to organizing tools and sports gear in summer, it adapts to your lifestyle while keeping your garage safe and organized.
