Roof Rack for 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf to Carry Paddleboard and Kayak
Question:
Hello, I am new to water-sporting and hauling the items needed, I have a 2019 Volkswagen e-golf. I’m wondering if it is possible to carry both a normal sized kayak and SUP board at the same time, given the size of my car. If I have to carry one at a time that is understandable. Also, I have no idea what to use for crossbars or the other pieces. Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you

With a roof rack installed on your 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf like the Thule square bar rack part numbers # TH712400, # TH710501, and # TH145010 you can carry a kayak and paddleboard but you'd need to have a j-style kayak carrier installed on the rack like with the # e98878 which would give you the room to carry the paddleboard like with the carrier # TH846000 you mentioned. The j-style carriers hold the kayaks up and out from the bars to free up more space.
