Roof Rack and Surfboard

So I purchased the subaru roof rack (E3610FG550) from ebay. What would I need to hold a surfboard? I'm clueless about racks so I'm not sure if I need to buy a surfboard rack or how to make it work. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

picked up the 554XT Hang Two Surf Carrier from Go Bananas.

Only thing is that the bolt is a bit short for the Subaru Cross Bars so I'll have to run to city mill or something.

Got it to work. Had to buy longer screws and pieces of rubber to make it fit snug.
