A storage system for items such as surfboards, kayaks, paddleboards, skies, and other similar items is comprised of one or more storage devices that are secured to a ceiling joist, and which have a vertical portion that extends toward the floor. The storage devices have arm portions that extend from near the bottom of the devices on which one would place the item to be stored. The arm portions are at an angle from the vertical portion sufficient to hold the item to be stored in place, but sufficiently shallow to minimize the space needed to accommodate the item. In most useful embodiments, two storage devices are used together and the item to be stored spans the two devices.
