Question:
I would like to purchase TH8 11XT, but I need to be able to put it on both a 2020 Honda Civic and a 2024 Hyundai Kona, neither car has any crossbars. Will this product work on both cars. Main question is do I need to have cross bars on my cars for this to work.

Hi Julie; the Thule SUP Shuttle Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier with Tie-Downs # TH811XT does require crossbars to mount it. If you want an option you can mount on both vehicles so you don't have to have two different roof racks I recommend the SeaSucker Monkey Bars Roof Rack # 298-SX6000B. This is universal so you can mount it on the roof of the Civic or Kona and remove it when you don't need to carry your paddleboard.
Got any favorite places for paddleboarding?
