Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 6 Pairs of Skis or 4 Boards
Looks great! Exactly what I wanted. Fast shipping too
E trailer I have a 2019 Mazda6 and purchased the rhino rack series 2500 parts (fit kit #DK289, foot pack #RRRLKVA, aero crossbars#RRVA126B-2), and the rhino rack snowboard/ski carrier #RR576. My car does have fixed mounting points underneath the strip on the roof so I opted to add them to my roof and not use the clamp for kit that goes in the door jam. Every time I entered the year, make, and model of my car, the parts came up with the clamp fit kit part #DK387 which I did not want. But after some research, I found the correct fixed mounting point fit kit. The site of course told me that this part wouldn’t fit my car but after looking at the customer reviews, I saw them used on Mazdas. All of the rhino rack instructions were not the best. We did have to make some adjustments. One of the instruction packs tells you how long you’re supposed to cut the rubber pieces that go into the crossbars based on your car but unfortunately, the measurements were wrong for my car (picture- front 166mm is wrong). The front bar length was about an inch too short and I had to add more rubber to make it longer to fit the fixed mounting points on my roof. After some time of trying to interpret the instructions, and looking up whatever available instructional videos were online, we finally finished installing them and they do look really nice. At higher speeds on the highway I can definitely hear more noise. The actual snowboard carrier is fine, fits all 4 boards fine. It is a little difficult to close once I have my boards in there because you have to push the top bar all the way down and hold it down to be able to turn the key to lock it. I’m just happy I don’t have to shove the boards in my trunk. I do like that all the parts in this series come with locks and keys. So far no problems. Overall good product.

Thule SnowPack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 6 Pairs of Skis or 4 Boards - Silver
Just put this snowboard rack on my 2011 4runner mounted to Thule Aeroblade roof rack. Easy to install and use. Quality seems good. Like the look. No noise issues when driving. No complaints so far. Overall satisfied!
So easy to install onto Thule AeroBlade. Quality materials and convenient design. No significant noise noticeable from wind resistance when driving. etrailer provided great shipment/notification support and was great resource for how-to videos, commentary.

Rhino-Rack Ski and Fishing Rod Carrier - Locking - 2 Pairs of Skis or 4 Fishing Rods
Sharp looking product and very easy to install. It's a little vague as the brackets are marked "do not overtighten" so I'll keep an eye on it to adjust if needed but very happy with the product and look. I bought these to carry fishing rods
I love my rod carriers! Makes it so much easier to drive out onto the beach with my 12'rods. Even looks stylish on my 4Runner.

Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 4 Pairs of Skis or 2 Boards
Looks great! Exactly what I wanted. Fast shipping too
Howzit etrailer.com & staff. the rack itself is sturdy and more aero than comparable units. For my 2017 Subaru Crosstrek (OEM) Aero Bars, it was necessary to shim the (rear) lower/leading edge clamp assembly with two 1/8” x 1.5” x 1.5” (EPDM) rubber pads. The bars are shaped like a wing – and these shims helped to level the rear rack with the one in front. Overall - it looks very clean and functional. I might screw on some rubber ends over the ends of the mounting bolt to complete the project. Time to make some turns. Thank you!!

Yakima FatCat EVO 6 Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 6 Pairs of Skis or 4 Boards - Black
Just got my Yakima Fatcat EVO 6 ski carrier (black finish) and I am stoked. Note that this is different than the Fatcat 6 (non-EVO, previous generation) carrier. This is my first ski carrier, but I and/or my kids ski about once a week at Alta and Snowbird when the lifts are running, so I expect it to get lots of use. Etrailer shipping was fast and item was packed in a sturdy secondary box. PROS: 1. I love the sturdy build and quality finish of the carrier. 2. The design allows many micro-adjustments to fit to your vehicle and to fit the skis. For instance the spring-loaded hinge on one end and the lock on the other end can naturally accommodate different thickness skis. 3. Carrier has a usable width (i.e. width of skis side by side) of 32.75 inches (832 mm). For those that are not skiing on 75-mm-wide skis from 30 years ago, this carrier might actually allow you to fit 6 pairs! 4. Separate mounting brackets for aero or for square/circle cross bars. The aero brackets fit securely on my Acura/Honda OEM cross bars. The flat part of your skis will be about 3 inches (76 mm) above your cross bars. 5. A built-in lift bracket that lifts by an additional 3 inches (76 mm) the hinged end of the carrier, if you have really tall bindings (I don't think I'll need to use it). 6. The aero brackets use a rubber coated steel strap to wrap under your cross bars. This strap has a quick release cam on one end that can be operated when the carrier is not key-locked. This means you can remove or install the carrier without tools in about 4 minutes, once you've done the initial install-related tuning. While the carrier seems sturdy enough to leave on the vehicle all winter, I expect I'll only install it on ski days. This feature really sets this model apart and for me was its biggest selling point. 7. Yakima packages the carrier in a nice-looking sturdy cardboard box with a flap lid. I can fit the two parts of the carrier in the box, with the brackets/straps still installed, for convenient storage (see picture). CONS: None so far, though I haven't yet actually hauled skis up the mountain! After this ski season is over and eTrailer asks me for a follow-up review, I'll let you know. I'm also thinking about seeing if the ski carrier can be attached to my small hitch-mounted cargo carrier. That would make loading and unloading the skis easier than on the roof.
First off...you can't beat the service of etrailer.com. I was looking for a ski rack for my son's 2012 Subaru Impreza with the factory roof rack (base model not the sport). I could find no reviews of anybody installing one of these on one of those. I took the plunge and will say that I am very happy with the outcome. The installation is a bit tricky and four hands help, but after the first one was installed we had the hang of it and the second one went on very quickly. Even with the expedited shipping this rack was about $50 cheaper than the Subaru ski rack. Again the etrailer.com service is fantastic. I have purchased products here before and will do so again.

Yakima FreshTrack 4 Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 4 Pairs of Skis or 2 Boards
I love this ski rack and the service I got while making the purchase from etrailer! This rack securely holds up to 4 pair of skis and is super easy to put on and take off of the roof. I would highly recommend this rack to anyone. I would also highly recommend purchasing this product and any other rooftop rack needs from etrailer
We added two more racks to the two we already had on our Jeep. Easy to install and use

Love it!!!!!! Great ski rack replacement for older rack. The extended slide is incredible. The eTrailer support helped me pick the model that worked for my car and crossbars. Another wonderful purchase from my go to source for bike/ski or other related products!

Just put this snowboard rack on my 2011 4runner mounted to Thule Aeroblade roof rack. Easy to install and use. Quality seems good. Like the look. No noise issues when driving. No complaints so far. Overall satisfied!
This rack easily fits 5 sets of skis for my family. It is FAIRLY easy to take on and off (could be faster if we didn't have to turn turn turn the dials). My biggest complaint is that as soon as my skis are out of it, I HAVE to remove it from my car (SUV). The noise of it empty on my roof is so loud when I am on the highway it is AWFUL! It's like it vibrates my whole car and is super loud. It only does it when there are no skis in it. It is frustrating since it would be way easier just to leave it on all winter taking my skis on and off when we need to, not the entire rack.

Kuat Grip Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Slide Out - 4 Pairs of Skis or 2 Boards - Gray
Eventhough we had a damaged packaging problem with missing parts, I will still give etrailer and my sales rep Joseph 5 stars for replacing rack with a new one in a very short amount of time. Things will happen but it is how the company take care of the problems quickly is how I rate them as well. The racks are excellent and although there is a lack of snow now, I know they will be great. Heavy duty racks that lock to the roof rails as well as lock the skis on as well. Can't beat Kuat products. They are made well and work well.

Yakima FreshTrack 6 Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 6 Pairs of Skis or 4 Boards
Looks great on the vehicle. Had a little struggle tightening onto the cross bars but adapted and overcame!
It's a ski rack so its not all that exciting. I like that it is small for storage reasons when not using it. The fastening system to my Toyota Highlander factory rack is secure but a little cumbersome to apply and take off. I like to take it off when not using it to preserve my gas mileage. The boards and skis fit fine although they are stacked in order to get 4 peoples worth of equipment up there. A small price to pay for their compact size on the roof or in the garage.

Yakima FatCat EVO 4 Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 4 Pairs of Skis or 2 Boards
I actually ended up buying a second set so I can fit a total of 8 pairs of skis on my jeep. I love the quality and ease of installation. It’s an easy to use system and love that my skis are secured.
These are extremely easy and quick to install. Love the aerodynamics of them as well as it's quality craftsmanship. Very pleased with this item and with the delivery speed! From North Shore Oahu....MAHALO

Kuat Grip Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Slide Out - 6 Pairs of Skis or 4 Boards - Black
Rack works great. Slide out makes loading and unloading much easier. So far we only put five pairs of fat skis on. Might have room for one more pair if I closed the gap between pairs but we didn’t need six pairs for that trip. Only problem was the rack froze up after driving through fresh rain. We had no problems with freezing while driving through salted slush. So far we’ve used it on two longer ski trips to CO from AZ. It’s quiet and strong. We once had a cheaper rack release our top model, expensive, skis onto the highway at 65 mph. That’s why I bought a Kuat.

Thule SnowPack Extender Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Slide Out - 6 Pairs of Skis or 4 Boards - Black
Game changer! I don’t have to climb on the car to put our skis on the rack or take them off. It’s also easy to put the rack on the car and take it off. I’m got sure you could get six pairs of skis on the rack, but I haven’t tried. It’s certainly no problem getting four pairs.
I am so thankful I spent the extra money and ordered the one that pulls out to easily load/unload skies. I’ve had several opportunities where I have had 6 pairs of skies to transport. I have had others approach me to see if I would trade.

Kuat Switch 6 Ski and Snowboard Carrier - 6 Pairs of Skis or 4 Boards
Excellent ski rack. I purchased because I wanted absolutely no noise. This thing is super quiet went flipped up or down. Love the looks of it flipped down. Absolutely no complaints. Easy to use and set up.
Arrived fast, easy to install on my 2021 Toyota Rav4 Limited. Love that it folds down when not in use. Haven't been to the mountain yet but looking forward to putting it to use. Save the box for storage - came with nice foam ends to protect it.

Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 3 Pairs of Skis or 2 Boards
Looks great! Exactly what I wanted. Fast shipping too
I think these racks will be excellent during ski outings for many years. I attached them directly to the C-grooves on my Aero bars rather than using the provided clamps. The C-groove attachment is stronger and slightly lower profile. I love the large release buttons!.

Now this is gonna be the one that gives full roof coverage front to back. They do make one that's smaller, if you're looking for 3/4 coverage, but this one is gonna be pretty much the entire roof giving you the most space to work with. Let's check it out. To get a little more specific, it's gonna be a little over 85 inches long and a little bit over 49 inches wide.
Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar Roof Rack Installation - 2015 Toyota 4Runner
Hi everyone. Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at, and showing you how to install, this Rhino Rack Vortex Stealth Bar Roof Rack System on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. This is designed to be used with factory raised rails. That's gonna be this raised silver portion on top of your roof of your 4Runner with that gap underneath. And this is gonna be a great way to utilize those factory raised rails and be able to move these around and mount up in a very clean fashion because this is a flush design, where the crossbar doesn't extend out to the side.
Thule WingBar Edge Crossbars Installation - 2015 Toyota 4Runner
Aiden Hi everyone, Aiden here etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install this Thule roof rack system for raised rails, on a 2015 Toyota 4Runner. So this system is gonna utilize the wing bar edge crossbars. This is gonna be an arrow bar which is gonna help with just general wind noise and cutting through that air pretty well. They're gonna work pretty well for any clamp around accessories, they're a very standard size but then there's also the T track up top, where if we remove these outer covers on the feet we're gonna slide our accessories in and the weather stripping will conform around those T track accessories and make sure that there's no wind noise getting in there. So this is one of those systems that's going to end in the foot pack, where the crossbar ends about here-ish and it doesn't leave any overhang.
Malone SteelTop Universal Roof Rack Installation - 2015 Toyota 4Runner
What's up everybody, it's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna checking out the Malone SteelTop roof rack system and we're putting it on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. This one's gonna be included with the 65 inch long square bars. You're gonna have the feet pad that come with it that help you attach it to the raised rails on your vehicle. Our 4Runner has 'em right here. They just clamp on, you tighten 'em on, and I can shake the whole vehicle back and forth, so you know these bars aren't going anywhere.
Thule Roof Rack Review - 2015 Toyota 4Runner
Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today we're taking a look at how the SportRack semi-custom fit roof rack that's 53 inches long fits on the 2015 Toyota 4Runner. Now, this is gonna be a quick overview of just how it fits with the 4Runner. If you want an in depth look at specs and measurements and dimensions, take a look at my full review of this crossbar. The most important things we're gonna take a look at is or I guess are the roof clearance measurements. How much space do you have from the top of the roof to bottom of the crossbar where the roof rack sits as well as the overhang.
Malone AirFlow2 Universal Roof Rack Installation - 2015 Toyota 4Runner
Today, we're going to be going over and showing you how to install the Malone Airflow2 Roof Rack here on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. So, adding a roof rack to your 4Runner, it's gonna be a great idea because it's gonna make your vehicle that much more versatile. Now, there's actually a number of different things we can use a roof rack for. If we wanted to hit the trails, we could easily throw a couple bikes up here, or if we just wanted to free up some space inside the vehicle for our family on those long road trips, we could easily attach either a roof mounted cargo box or cargo carrier. So, this particular roof rack here has what's known as aero shaped crossbars. So, there's a couple of different crossbar types on the market.
Inno Roof Rack Review - 2015 Toyota 4Runner
Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we'll be taking a look at our Inno aero roof rack system with our 57-inch long crossbars and our Inno through feet, right here on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. So now many 4Runners arrive with factory crossbars that go right into your rail and are also adjustable and are also slightly aerodynamic. Remember, the downside to those is you don't have a T-channel and you have super limited crossbar clearance underneath. I was not able to clamp down most of our accessories here at etrailer because of how limited that was. It's very easy to damage your roof with them being so low.
Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Roof Rack Installation - 2015 Toyota 4Runner
Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we'll be taking a look at our Rhino-Rack roof rack system with the Rhino-Rack Aero crossbars that are 54 inches long, and the Rhino-Rack towers for raised rails, right here on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. So you have your 4Runner and you're ready for adventure, but what if you need a little extra space to store, let's say your cargo, or you wanna carry accessories like your ski and snowboard racks or your bike racks or even a roof box. That's where a roof rack system like this comes in. Now Rhino-Rack has some different options for you. They have shorter bars and they have these, which are the slightly longer crossbars.
Inno Roof Rack Review - 2015 Toyota 4Runner INB127
Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we'll be taking a look at our Inno roof rack system with the Inno square crossbars that are 50 inches long, the Inno feet for square crossbars, right here on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. Now for a comparison between these square bars and other roof racks design for your 4Runner is if you want more weight capacity, you would go with the square crossbars because they're made of steel, they have more capacity, but they could be slightly noisier compared to an aero crossbar. So that's something worth considering. Also, you might even want the longer crossbars, since if you want more overhang, this doesn't provide more overhang. You could just easily step up the size, no issues at all.
Inno Aero Crossbars Review - 2015 Toyota 4Runner
