Expert Reply:
The ski carrier item # Y57VR that comes with the Yakima EXO Swing Away Ski and Snowboard Carrier item # Y94ZR has a specially designed base that only works with the Swing Away System. That makes other carriers like the Yakima FatCat EVO item # Y03095 incompatible with the EXO system because they don't have this base.

I have four of the fat cat sixes and this EXO system can’t I just buy the EXO system plate and convert my existing fat cat six to work with this EXO system?
