Whether you are hauling 3 pairs of skis, 2 snowboards, or a family-size load of fishing poles, this carrier ensures that you will arrive at your destination with all your gear intact - and you'll do it without breaking the bank.
The Rhino-Rack ski and fishing rod carrier comes with a lock on each unit, offering you peace of mind when you are hanging at the lodge after a long day on the slopes or out on the lake in your boat.
The carrier operates with a large push button on the side of the unit. This design allows for easy loading and unloading of skis, a snowboard, or fishing rods, even if you're wearing fingerless mittens or big, bulky winter gloves.
The ski and fishing rod carrier mounts in the top channel of your Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero or Heavy-Duty crossbars with T-bolts. It also comes with universal clamp-on mounting hardware that lets you use the carrier on round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars right out of the box.
A riser kit (S550 - sold separately) is available to accommodate your skis or snowboards with tall bindings. The risers mount to the spacer nuts on the bottom of your rack and attach to your crossbars with a special fit kit (WR09 - sold separately). These kits add 1-3/8 inches of additional clearance between the bottom of the carrier and your vehicle's roof. If you have Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty crossbars, you will need to use fit kit WR02 instead of WR09.
This carrier protects your gear with soft rubber molding inside the hinged arms of the carrier. The molding gently cradles your skis, snowboard, or fishing rods and won't damage paint or cause abrasions.

I think these racks will be excellent during ski outings for many years. I attached them directly to the C-grooves on my Aero bars rather than using the provided clamps. The C-groove attachment is stronger and slightly lower profile. I love the large release buttons!.

I can't ski, I fly fish. However my oldest decided to try downhill skiing after being gifted a pair of skis. I am budget minded should the skiing not work out and after breaking many rod tips decided this might solve 2 problem. I am very pleased w/this equipment holder. It has transported skis & ski poles too and from and no longer does my oldest have to dodge skies coming over the back seat. So far it has taken abuse from the rain (& freezing rain), snow, ice, rapid warming, road salt, and upwards of 70mph and there has been no shifting, loosening, breaking of plastic or any other noticeable problems. I am excited for spring to see how it transports my fly rods.

Clamp came almost ready to install, which was great for getting it on my rack in less than 30 minutes. It is very sturdy and holds my boards great! I was concerned my crossbars would be too thick, so the feet of the clamp's wouldn't fit around them, but they fit snug and secure.
by: Jerry 02/09/2023
So far, the rack has been working great. Shipping and assembly were no problem.
by: JT12/22/2016
This ski/snowboard holder is extremely easy to install, very sturdy and looks good. I tried driving at freeway speeds and could not hear any whistling or wind noise so far. The included locks are definitely a bonus.

These are stable, secure, and easy to use. They work great!
by: Julie01/04/2019
Very happy with our new ski rack! Easy to install and very stable. Needed this smaller rack because a full size one will NOT fit a 2019 Jeep. This one is just right!
by: Jason 03/03/2023
Good quality and easy to install!
by: Laura 12/09/2022
Unfortunately we have to take the bindings off to stow two boards but it will create much needed space in our SUV and I trust that my boards will be secure from theft. They will be a new staple on my car for the rest of the winter and allow us to make quick and easy trips to the mountains.

Easy to install and works great!

Advertised as being able to hold 3 skis. 2 pair of skis yes - 3 adult skis no.
by: Tina01/08/2018
This has worked out great for our family to hit the ski slopes last winter and again this winter. Very easy to use, put on at beginning of winter, and remove when the slopes close for the season.

Great product, my daughter loves it.

Howzit etrailer.com & staff. the rack itself is sturdy and more aero than comparable units. For my 2017 Subaru Crosstrek (OEM) Aero Bars, it was necessary to shim the (rear) lower/leading edge clamp assembly with two 1/8” x 1.5” x 1.5” (EPDM) rubber pads. The bars are shaped like a wing – and these shims helped to level the rear rack with the one in front. Overall - it looks very clean and functional. I might screw on some rubber ends over the ends of the mounting bolt to complete the project. Time to make some turns. Thank you!!

See what our Experts say about this Rhino Rack Ski and Snowboard Racks
- Roof Rack and Surf/Snow Board Carriers for 2015 Jeep Cherokee Laredo with Raised Roof Side RailsWe have many roof rack options for your 2015 Jeep Cherokee Laredo with factory roof side rails that can be seen on the included link. These include racks from brands like Rhino-Rack, Thule and Yakima (among others) and also racks with round, square or aerodynamic crossbars in a range of lengths. In terms of best overall value and capability I really like the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero racks. These are similar to Thule AeroBlade racks in that they greatly reduce wind noise as compared to the...
view full answer... - Recommended Ski Rack for Rola Sport Series Roof Rack with GTX Mounting SystemThere are plenty of ski carriers that will work with the Rola Sport Series Roof Rack with GTX Mounting System like 59733 which is a fit for a 2007 - 2011 Toyota Camry. The best one will be dependent on how many pairs of skis you need to carry. The Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier part # RR573 will work with the Rola Sport Series Roof Rack with GTX Mounting System and allow for up to three pairs of skis. I have attached the full list of ski carriers we offer below as well.
view full answer... - Rhino Rack Ski and Snowboard Rack Compatibility with Yakima Jetstream T-SlotsThe Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573 will fit the top channel of most aero crossbars including the Yakima Jetstream. They will also fit very well over the bars so if you want to use the carrier on other aero bars, you will have that option as well. Let me know if you have further questions.
view full answer... - What Accessory Bars Will Fit The Rhino Rack Platform On 2018 Toyota 4Runner For Carrying Snowboards?Yes, the Rhino-Rack Accessory Bars # RR43137B are designed to fit all the 4 plank Rhino Rack Platforms like the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System # RR43AB on your 2018 Toyota 4Runner. Then you will be able to mount a Snowboard Carrier # RR576, # RR574, or # RR573 to your accessory bars. The carrier will attach directly to the bars with the t-slot channel and does not use the universal clamps.
view full answer... - Recommended Ski/Snowboard Carrier for 2017 VW Tiguan with Raise Side RailsIn order to carry skis/snowboards on a 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan with raised side rails you'll first need to start with crossbars, I recommend the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part # MPG215 which has aero shaped crossbars that are the most widely compatible/wind resistant and locks for security. These will then allow you to mount a number of different ski and snowboard carrier like the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier part # RR573 which is what I recommend. I have attached a full list of...
view full answer... - Can I Open Sunroof of Toyota Highlander with Rhino Rack Roof Rack?Yes you can! Since you're looking at the Rhino Rack kit with parts # RRVA137B-2, # RRRCL4, # RRRCP31-BK , I assume you have a 2019 Toyota Highlander with flush rails on your roof since this kit mounts to fixed mounting points? If you look on your roof, note where those fixed points are on your rails. Usually they are set behind the sunroof, since the aerodynamics and weight distribution works better towards the back of your roof and to avoid that sunroof. I attached a video review below...
view full answer... - Recommended Ski Carrier That Mounts In Track On CrossbarsThe good news is that the t-slot mounting channels are fairly standardized so you won't be limited to any one particular brand or carrier. If you are looking to carry ski's, the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier part # RR573 is my recommendation since it holds up to three pairs, has locks for security, and comes with both wraparound mounts/t-bolts. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to provide any hardware for factory carriers as length and pitch both would come into play and we don't...
view full answer... - Roof Mount Ski Carrier that Will Fit Rhino-Rack Crossbar T-SlotThe Thule SnowPack ski carrier # TH7326 will fit the Rhino-Rack Vortex crossbars but it is not designed or tested to work in the T-slot. The feet clamp around the bars using the Speed-Link rubber-coated metal strap. Another option that will mount in the slot is the Rhino-Rack ski carrier # RR573.
view full answer... - Snowboard Carrier Compatibility with Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack on 2015 Subaru ForesterThe Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack - Aero Crossbars - Raised, Factory Side Rails - Aluminum - 50" Long # MPG215 has 3 inch wide bars and integrated T-slots. It is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Subaru Forester. The Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 3 Skis or 2 Boards # RR573 will work using either the clamps or the T-slot mounting hardware. The 4 Skis or 2 Boards version # RR574 will work as well. Finally, the Yakima FreshTrack 4 Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 4 Skis...
view full answer... - Does Rhino-Rack Ski Rack Fit 2022 VW TaosThe Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573 will fit crossbars up to 3-1/2 inches wide. It will fit your 2022 Volkswagen Taos so long as you have a roof rack system with crossbars up to that width; if you just have the raised side rails and no roof rack with crossbars you will need to add a rack with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 and Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs # RRSX022.
view full answer... - Ski Carrier Recommendation for 2018 Chrysler Pacifica to Carry 6 Pairs of SkisThe overall length of the Rhino Rack Ski Carrier part # RR573 that you referenced is 18-1/2 inches so to fit two of these you'd need bars that right at 36 inches in length. Another option that would work really well is the Kuat Grip Ski Carrier part # GRR6P which can carry up to 6 pairs of skis. The inner tray of the carrier slides out so that you can have access to the far side of the rack without having to climb all the way onto the roof. Check out the review video I attached for more...
view full answer... - Can Rhino Rack Ski Carrier # RR573 Attach to Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform TrayThe # RR43159 can only be used with the Rhino Rack Ski Carrier part # RR572.The mounting brackets of the # RR573 are spaced too far apart to fit on the # RR43159. Now with that said the part # RR573 is designed to attach to t-channels on the tops of crossbars which the Pioneer Platform trays also feature so you could still attach this directly to a Pioneer Platform.
view full answer... - Recommended Ski and Snowboard Rack For Limited Roof Rack SpaceThe Thule Snowboard Rack with Locks - Space Saving Design you referenced has been discontinued and could not hold skis. The locking cable was designed only for use with snowboards and would not allow you to go tight enough to secure skis from bouncing around. My recommendation for your limited space is the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 3 Skis or 2 Boards # RR573. This rack has an external measurement of 18-1/2 inches and and internal measurement of 12-13/16 inches.
view full answer... - Does Malone Roof Rack MPG201 Fit 2016 Jeep Cherokee with Raised Rails and Fit Rhino Rack Ski RackYes and yes, the Malone Roof Rack part # MPG201 is a fit for your 2016 Jeep Cherokee with raised rails and it will allow a Rhino Rack ski rack like the # RR573 to mount.
view full answer... - How Much Height Will Rhino-Rack Ski/Pole Carrier RR573 Add to a Roof RackI went out to the warehouse to measure the Rhino-Rack ski/pole carrier # RR573. From the top of the unit to the base (if using the flat, square bolt for mounting) it measures 5 inches. If using the foot it will stick up above the crossbars 5-3/4 inches. I included a picture showing these measurements for you.

- 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Ski Carrier Recommendation for Rhino-Rack Squarebar Roof RackThe Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars # RRVA137B-2, 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA, and Fit Kit # DK360 are a great option for your 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. I've attached an installation video of this roof rack system on a 2013 Santa Fe so you can get a good idea about how it installs. To carry your skis we have a few different options but I recommend just sticking with the Rhino-Rack theme and choosing one of the following depending on how many pairs of skis you want to be able to carry: 2...
view full answer... - Recommended Bike and Ski Carriers for a Malone AirFlow2 Roof RackThe Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part # MPG215 has standard size aero crossbars so most roof bike and ski carriers will work just fine. For a roof bike carrier, I recommend the Swagman Upright Roof Bike Rack part # S64720 which is a great, easy to use option. For a roof ski carrier, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier part # RR573 which is very popular and even comes with locks.
view full answer... - Recommended Roof Rack and Ski Carrier for a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek w/ Side Rails To add a ski rack to a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek you'll need to install a set of crossbars first. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex StealthBar Roof Rack item # JA7987 in black, or item # JA7954 in silver. These attach directly to the side rails and do not overhang the sides which makes them perfect for a ski rack. The included locks will help secure them from theft. I have attached a couple of pictures below along with an installation video so you can see what they look like installed and...

- Recommendation for Carrying 5 Pairs of Skis and 1 Snowboard on Roof Rack for 2020 Honda OdysseyI have a solution for you, but there is not a single carrier that will allow you to carry all of your skis and snowboards within a solitary apparatus. From what I'm able to determine, a factory roof rack on a 2020 Honda Odyssey will have approximately 47-1/4" of usable bar space; if you've got an aftermarket roof rack where the crossbars extend slightly past the side rails it will provide a bit more. I recommend using 2 carriers in order to carry all of these items. RhinoRack makes some...
view full answer... - Recommendation to Carry Skis and Snowboards on Roof of 2021 Kia TellurideTo start off we will need to get a roof rack on your 2021 Kia Telluride for which I recommend the Yakima JetStream system which includes the following: 60" JetStream Crossbars - Black # Y00426 BaseLine Towers - # Y28TR Fit Kits - # Y06125 and # Y06165 Then for a ski/snowboard carrier I recommend going with 2 of the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573. This can carry 3 pairs of skis or 2 boards so you would be able to use 1 for the skis and then 1 for the boards. I've attached...
view full answer... - Will Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier Mount to Vortex Aero Crossbars on 2012 Honda FitYes your assumption is correct, the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573 will fit onto the Rhino-Rack RS 2500 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs - Vortex Aero Crossbars.
view full answer... - Inexpensive Roof Rack and Ski Carrier Recommendations for a 2008 Subaru Legacy SedanFor your 2008 Subaru Legacy Sedan the most cost-effective roof rack that is also going to be reliable is from Rhino-Rack using the following parts: # INB127 # INSUT # INK788 The only option that is cheaper is only a semi-custom fit so it does not offer the best fit for the vehicle. For ski carriers that will fit the Rhino-Rack roof rack you have some options. For 6 pairs of skis or 4 snowboards you can use # RR576. For 4 pairs of skis or 2 boards you can use # RR574. For 3 pairs of skis...
view full answer... - Recommended Ski Carrier for Factory Crossbars on 2013 Honda PilotIt sounds like your Honda-branded ski carrier uses what is commonly called a T-slot type attachment that works on crossbars such as the Rhino-Rack Vortex # RRVA137B-2 and the Inno Aero # INXB100. All of these crossbars have a similar channel for mounting T-slot type accessories. These various bars and accessories are not identical but we have found that typically a T-slot accessory product from one maker will usually work with a bar from another. We do not offer any adapter kit that will...

The clamps should adjust location to fit your bars. The clamps do not need to fully enclose the bar but it does need to clamp and hold tight. They specify the maximum aero bar dimensions it will fit is 3-1/2 inches by 1-11/16 inches and it will fit a crossbar spread between 24 and 42 inches center to center. There is not a conversion to...

There is a certain way you have to pair the skis up for all of them to fit. There is a photo above in the description of all 3 pairs of skis.
