Question:
will yakima kayak saddles or j style racks work with the areo blade?
asked by: Joe
Expert Reply:
There are Thule Roof Top Kayak Carriers available that will fit on the Thule Aeroblade bars, but the Yakima kayak racks you referenced will only fit square and round bars.
Check out the Thule Hull-A-Port # TH835PRO. This is a J-style kayak rack that is confirmed to fit the Aeroblade bars. I attached installation instructions and a review video for this product for you to check out.
For a Thule saddle style kayak carrier you should check out the Thule Glide and Set Carrier # TH883. This rack will work on Thule Aeroblade bars also.
