i don't know about a X, but in my IX I simply recline the passenger seat to get the board in....6'10"

unless you longboard, screw the rack. Fold down the passenger seat, and put your board in the rear passenger door behind the drivers seat. I fit my 7'3 in snuggly, and my 6'1 is effortless.
make sure to use a board bag so you dont get wax on your seats. I have a XI btw, but i think the X has the same amount of room, if not more.

Yakima just came out with a rack set for the X. I got one, Ill take some pics to show you, but I ended up buying a 1000.00 old pickup truck, that works much better. After getting wax all over my recaro's it seemed like the correct thing to do.

a board bag is 50 bucks.
no wax on the seats

^Agreed, the wax came off the board bag :)

I usually use the board bag to lay the board on when I am getting ready to head out. I guess some wax got on it, then my seats.

cool thanks for the tips. ill probly just put it in the front seat. i guess its a blessing in disguise cuz if more than 1 guy wants to come with me i dont have to drive :) haha

STRAT10 i'd still like to see what those racks look like with boards on top whenever you get a chance

you can always have your friend ride behind you...

but as everyone has said, just recline your seat. You can buckle it in too..
