Easy and Practical | |
| Rating: |  |
This is a great way to carry your snow gear and keep your edges from gouging your vehicle interior. It's easy to mount to your bike rack and the locks keep your stuff secure. I used a gun lock to attach the snow rack to the bike rack - you'll want something or it would be easy to lift the snow rack right off the bike rack. It can be a little tricky to get a snowboard in facing the inside, depending on your binding mount. Wet road spray is a bit annoying and covers your gear. Overall I'm pleased with the performance and ease of use and would recommend. | |

You are lucky if you can fit 3 or 4 pairs of skis on this rack. Unless you are using skis from before 1991 you cannot fit 6 pairs of skis on here. On top of that, most pairs of skis are too thick for the mechanism to be shut over your skis and hold them stable on the rack. The bottom rack doesn't even open so good luck wedging a twin tip in there. This rack would have been decent 15 years ago, but now there are much better items. Just get a rack for the top of your car. | |

| If you like fishtailing on the highway this is the rack for you. Mounting skis/snowboards like this looks awesome, but also turns your car into a sailboat. I dont know about SUV use, but I would never suggest it on a car or wagon. | |

I have the Hitch ski Twin tip skis don't fit well at all, same with snowboards. Once the stuff is in there the carrier work fine but be prepared to spend some time getting things in the rack. | |
