Helpful Expert Reply:

I recommend the Thule WingBar Edge Crossbar # TH55RE, Edge Clamp Feet # TH79SC and Fit Kit # TH36RV for your 2020 Ford Escape Titanium. This kit will fit the naked roof you have as the soft rails you mentioned allow for factory rails and crossbars to be installed.

For carrying your SUP or surf board the Thule SUP Taxi XT Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier # TH810001 will allow you to carry up to 2 boards that are up to 34" wide. This carrier is lockable so you can ensure your boards stay on your roof. The carrier includes the locks but you will need the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450800 if you want all 8 locks for the carrier and racks to match.
