To carry your SUP I recommend using the Yakima SweetRoll # Y04074 because it combines saddle with rollers to make loading the longer board easier. The saddles are molded rubber so they won't hurt your SUP but if you'd like to add some extra protection you can use the Felt Pads # Y08004080. You may also be interested in the Loading Mat # TH854 to help protect your vehicle.
The SweetRoll can be used both for your SUP as well as your kayak if you transport them at separate times. If you're wanting to take both at the same time then you can use the SweetRoll for your SUP and then I recommend using the etrailer J-Style Kayak Carrier # e98878 too.
