| I recently made a 1300 mile trip from Carlsbad, NM to Moab, UT and back. I carried my kayak using a pair of Mako Saddles and Hully Rollers. Whether driving 75 mph into a 20 - 30 mph wind on Westbound I40 or doing 70 with a strong side wind on US 285, the kayak never budged. I could look through the sunroof see how stable it was. Great product. | |

| If you enjoy getting up to about 70 mph. and sending your yak into orbit then this is not the product to buy. I have an Native Ultimate 14.5, and carry it on a double cab tacoma. I'm telling you it does not move even when I go 80. | |
