Rooftop Tent Basics

To be able to use the SkyRise on your vehicle, both your roof and your aftermarket roof rack must have a minimum load capacity of 165 lbs. This weight capacity, also known as dynamic weight capacity, is the maximum weight your roof and roof rack can safely support while the vehicle is in motion. If your setup meets these requirements, then you should be able to safely hold the tent and occupants when your vehicle is stationary. The stationary capacity, or static weight capacity, won't be listed in your vehicle's manual or your roof rack's installation instructions. Instead, it is determined by the 165 lbs minimum load carrying capacity explained above.

  • Can Yakima LockNLoad Platform for 2011 Jeep Patriot Support Yakima SkyRise Tent

  • Cross Bars and Roof Top Tent for 2015 Nissan Rogue
    Yes, you will need cross bars to go with your factory installed rails. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RRVA126B-2 installed using the Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs for Vortex Aero Crossbars, # RRSX100. I have linked a product review and installation video below of these being put on 2015 Nissan Rogue. These have a dynamic weight capacity of 165 lbs. and will work with the roof top tents such as the Yakima SkyRise Tent for Roof Rack Crossbars - 3 Person, # Y79XR or # Y07437...

  • Comparing The Yakima SkyRise And SkyRise HD Rooftop Tents
    The Yakima SkyRise # Y79XR has a 210 denier rating whereas the HD # Y07437 has a 600 denier rating, which means that the HD's fabric is about three times as thick. I've camped in the HD in 40 - 80 degree weather and felt that it was enough to accommodate the lows and definitely needed the zippered windows open during the highs. The SkyRise being a bit thinner would give you more airflow to help with the higher temps but would likely require more to stay warm. If you're planning on staying...

  • Roof Top Tent Solution for 2023 Hyundai Santa Fe with Thule Wingbar Roof Rack
    We have roof top tents that were designed to attach to aero crossbars like the Thule Wingbars you have on your 20223 Hyundai Santa Fe like the Yakima SkyRise part # Y79XR. This would make the most sense since you already have the needed crossbars.

  • Can a Rooftop Tent Be Carried on a 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe Factory Roof Rack w/ OffGrid Basket
    There is not going to be a rooftop tent that is compatible with the Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket # Y07139-09 installed. The Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket # Y07139-09 is 49" wide which is going to be too wide to also put a rooftop tent on the crossbars. The Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket # Y07139-09 does have accessory bars on it, but they are not made to support a rooftop tent. The only way to use a rooftop tent is to remove the Yakima OffGrid Roof Cargo Basket # Y07139-09. I...
