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.

So far, the rack has been working great. Shipping and assembly were no problem.

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: 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.

Good quality and easy to install!

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.
by: Justin 11/07/2020
Best there is. Never mind spending 300+ get these for half of that and quality is just as good even better. Would highly recommend

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
- 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.

- 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... - 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... - 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... - How Much Bar Space Is Needed To Mount And Use the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier?To fit the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573 you are going to need at least 14" of bar space on your crossbars. So as long as you have 14" of bar space, ,the # RR573 will work just fine and will have plenty of room to operate. Attached is a review video for you to check out 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... - 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 Rhino Rack Ski Carrier RR573 Fit Factory Bars of 2016 Nissan RogueYes, the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573 that you referenced has been tested by Rhino Rack and confirmed as a fit for the factory bars of your 2016 Nissan Rogue! I attached a review video for this carrier for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - 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...

The correct part number for the 5-rod carrier is the following: - Rhino-Rack Fishing Rod Carrier - Locking - 5 Fishing Rods # RR573F The # RR573F is a really nice choice because it is easy to use with its universal clamping hardware, comes with locks to protect your rods, and is also a very good value for its combination of quality and price.

view full answer... - Ski Carrier Recommendation for Fitting Rhino Rack Ski Carrier # RR43119BYou'd want to go with a Rhino Rack ski rack like the part # RR573 as Thule and Yakima don't make any track mounted ski carriers at this time. The # RR573 comes with T-bolts though that you can use to mount them in a T track like the part # RR43119B though.
view full answer... - How to Carry Fishing Rods on Roof of 2015 Subaru CrosstrekThe Rhino-Rack Ski and Fishing Rod Holder # RR572 is a great way to carry Skis and Fishing Rods. I like that Rhino-Rack has several different sizes available to fit your needs to how many skis or rods you need to carry. The mounting system will attach to the Crosstrek's cross bars whether they are factory or aftermarket aero, square or round bars. The included locking feature makes this one stand out compared to others available. If your son ever plans to carry a snowboard you might...
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/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... - 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... - Can Thule SkiClick Carry Alpine or Carving SkisWhile we have an option for you, I verified with Thule that alpine and carving skis are not compatible with the Thule SkiClick Rooftop Ski Carrier for Cross Country Skis # TH7291. The SkiClick are only compatible with cross country skis, so you would need a standard ski carrier for alpine or carving skis, and there is one option that I recommend due to its value: - Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 3 Pairs of Skis # RR573 The value of the # RR573 comes from the fact that...

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.
