The Rails are made by a Canadian Company, Supertrac by SuperClamp, they are meant for truck box anchors and are rated for 2000b, much higher than the camper wall! Foam blocks are used to cushion the boards or whatever else you attached. I used Sika 221 for a sealant and long SS bolts, through the wall supports with 1-1/2" washers on the inside.

I can get my shortboard and 8'6" inside the camper but anything longer goes on the roof racks. That sure is more convenient than putting them on the roof rack. I'm guessing that you through bolted them, and used extra H.D. straps
 
I like to keep the inside more accessible if possible, and yes the side mount makes loading the boards so much easier than the roof and you dont have to lift the extra weight to with the top.
 
Nice! Jimmy Buffet uses a similar setup on this sports mobile for his sups. I keep my short boards in side and longer boards on top. I thought about mounting my longboard on the side but I wouldn't be able to open my truck door.
 
Mine sup is 12' and i can still open the truck door, 14' or longer may stuck out too much, but there is no perfect solution
