When you’re loading up for a trip with kayaks, camping gear, or a cargo box, you want a rack that feels solid and secure. This Yakima SkyLine system includes 2 JetStream crossbars made of aluminum, so it’s both lightweight and strong. With a 165-lb weight capacity, it handles the gear you need for your next outing without flexing or rattling. The rigid construction inspires confidence whether you’re heading to the water or setting off on a long road trip.
Driving with crossbars shouldn’t mean putting up with nonstop whistling. The JetStream bars have an aero-style shape that helps smooth airflow over the roof. Rubber strips sit in the top channels to reduce wind noise and vibration while sealing out the elements. Because the strips push down as you install accessories, there’s no trimming required and no gaps left behind to catch the wind.
Some racks make you cut rubber inserts before you can mount your gear, but this setup keeps things simple. The push-down rubber strips let you press mounting hardware directly into the top tracks—no cutting or fiddling needed. Once your accessory is in place, the strips close back around it to maintain a clean, quiet surface. That means less prep time and more time on the road or water.
The SkyLine towers install directly to your vehicle’s fixed mounting points for a precise and sturdy fit. Everything lines up cleanly, giving you a rock-solid base for your cargo system. And when you want extra protection, Yakima Same Key System (SKS) lock cores (sold separately) can be added to help deter theft of the rack while parked overnight or at the trailhead.
This rack gives you flexibility for all kinds of trips. The bars work with most universal cargo boxes, kayak carriers, ski racks, and bike mounts that attach either in the top channels or around the bars. Whether it’s summer paddling or winter skiing, your accessories fit right in so you can load up fast and get going every time.

After a year, the landing pads look like new and have worked out spectacularly. Ive tested the pads on/off the car, and they havent affected fuel economy aero drag at all, so I just leave them on. Id highly recommend these, and I appreciate etrailers video tutorial before I purchased the product!
