Default Re: Roof Top Kayak Carrier Suggestions

Each Kayak has different aerodynamic characteristics when being carried in J hooks. I have two kayaks the same length, one sit in and another sit. I absolutely can not carry the sit on without front rope. I've seen cars with two kayaks angled 45 degrees on the top of the car because of the wind and no front ropes.

As for favorite rack. I have fixed Thules that need to be taken off my SUV if parking in a garage or parking deck. The types that fold down look nice but since I already own 2 pair of J hook Thules I can justify the cost right now. I just remove them after every use. I do that because I also carry a canoe.
