A wallboard support system for effectively supporting a wallboard such as drywall. The wallboard support system generally includes a support base, a telescoping unit extending from the support base and a cradle attached to an upper portion of the telescoping unit to support a wallboard. The cradle is comprised of a support unit having a pair of channels that receive a corresponding pair of outriggers that slidably extend from opposing ends of the support unit. A first guide within a first channel of the support unit guides a first outrigger outwardly and slightly upwardly. A second guide within a second channel of the support unit guides a second outrigger outwardly and slightly upwardly mirroring the first outrigger.
