For your 2014 Mazda CX-5 with a bare roof I recommend the Rhino Rack Roof Rack which uses 46"Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA118B-2, Legs # RRRLKVA, and Fit Kit # DK289. This option will give you 46" of useable crossbar space, a 165lb weight capacity, and can be secured to the roof of your CX-5 with the included locks installed on the legs.
To carry your Surfboard, longboard, and SUP I recommend the Inno Locker Watersport Carrier - Locking - Channel Mount # INXA445 which will fit the T-slots in the crossbars perfectly, and will allow you to carry 1 canoe or kayak, 2 stand-up paddleboards, 3 short surfboards, 2 windsurf boards, or 2 long surfboards.
I included videos for each of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
