Thanks for the detailed description of these products! I have a question: I have cargo box that I’m using on a sedan alone or with a single Thule 598 bike rack (during the summer). My new skis are longer than my cargo box. I’m thinking of buying the smallest ski rack (e.g. SnowPack 7322) to use it along with the current box (in the place of bike rack). Do you think it would be ok to keep the skis in this rack in the ~1000 km trip(one direction) in terms of damaging the skis (as soon they’re opened in the rack)? Or should I consider a longer box to put one long pair of skis and another bulky luggage? Thanks!
Hi @YL87, Thanks for your question! If you are concerned about damage to your skis from the rack, all of these racks have built-in rubber strips that protect the skis from damage from the racks. However, as they are more open to the elements than being kept in a cargo box, there could be the risk that something flies off the road during the trip, but this would be very unlikely. Thanks

very informational. Thank you
Glad it was helpful, Benny!
Very helpful
I got the Kuat Grip to go along with Thule Wingbar Evo's, sadly the Kuat rack doesn't work with Thule keys, so I'm stuck with separate keys
Hello Mike, yes, the keys are not cross compatible between brands. We hope you still enjoy your rack!
Hello ,
How many snowboards can each carry ?
Thank you for the video
Hello. These carriers are rated to carry up to four snowboards. Thanks!
