Video Transcript for Thule AeroCrossbars SUP and Surfboard Pads Review
Adam: Hi everyone, Adam with Etrailer.com. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Surf Pads. What they're going to do is just going to protect your boards from any scratches or abrasions and just give you a nice cushioned pad to load up all your gear, whether it be a paddleboard, as you see here, or you could have a surfboard or two, whatever it is. It's definitely going to take care of your goods just so they don't get damaged.These surf pads are going to come in two different sizes. We do have the 30 inch one installed right now. It's pretty much an ideal length for our paddleboard here, but we also do have a 20 inch one as well.
As you can see here, it's not going to span the whole width of our paddleboard, so be sure to check the width of your surfboard or paddleboard before you buy. Both sizes are going to have a nylon construction and they are going to resist against UV, so you can be rest assured that it won't fade over time. They do have an integrative no slip grip on top, so you can be rest assured that your boards will have optimal grip and they'll stay on your roof whenever you're hauling them around.As you can see here, these surfboard pads, they are only going to sit up about an inch and a half. It's definitely going to get you a lot less height added to your vehicle whenever you're hauling anything around. Another thing I thought about, a lot of these paddleboards, you can get them where they're air filled.
With these pads, it's going to give a little bit more give than just our hard crossbars. It's going to be a little bit easier on there, so you don't have to worry about popping them whenever you're strapping them down.We do have the wing bar Evos on here now. They're going to be compatible with these on top of the AeroBlades, the ProBars and the Xsporter Pros. Those are just the Thule style crossbars that they will be compatible with. If you have another brand that has relative the same shape, they'll work with those as well.
These are, in my opinion, extremely easy to install. You don't need any tools, it's just three hook and loops underneath and it wraps around your bars. It's an extremely economical choice as well. It's really easy, so let's just go ahead and show you.The first thing you want to do is just undo these hook and loops, there is going to be three of them. Once we get all those undone here, we can go ahead and throw it up top on our bar and then wrap these underneath.
I always usually favor the passenger side just in case I'm on the highway and I have to pull over and check and make sure everything's nice and secure still. Then, we can go ahead and do the same exact thing for our back bar.Then, we can go ahead and load up our board. Once you get your board up and into place, you can go ahead and strap them down. We do have a lot of different straps to choose from. If you don't have any, go on Etrailer.com and pick some out that's right for you. These that we picked here are going to be Thule and they kind of match my board, which I kind of like.Well everyone, that's going to do it for our look at the Thule Surf Pads.

These soft foam pads make it easy to safely transport 1 small surfboard, SUP or sailboard on your roof rack crossbars. Pads wrap firmly around crossbars and secure with hook and loop fasteners.by: John07/05/2023
I bought two sets of these for a tracRac ladder rack. I actually used the ladder rack for hauling two kayaks. I bought the padding to cushion the cross bars do i wouldnt dent my kayaks. These ate easy to use. You simply install in minutes and holds on the cross bars with industrial strength velcro. The material that the pads are made of are a canvas like heavy duty material. I think these ate made very well and to date show no signs of wear and tear. Definitely reccomend these pads.

Great quality, very easy to use
by: Howard 04/14/2023
Quick and easy. Only thing is both times the rack pads came in a oversized box. Seems like we could scale that down. ;)
by: Jeff07/09/2021
Easy to set up and the black color went well with my Ruby Red. Held my kayaks tight and traveled well. 2018 Ford F150 XLT

See what our Experts say about this Thule Watersport Carriers
- Recommended Thule SUP Pads for 2020 Chevrolet Tahoe with Factory CrossbarsThe Thule SUP and Surfboard Pads for AeroCrossbars - 20" Long - Qty 2 # TH845000 you were looking at are designed to fit on both aero style bars and most factory crossbars, so these would be my recommendation. These are 20" long and have an anti-slip surface to help keep the board in place. I also recommend using the Thule Multipurpose Locking Straps with Rubber Housings - 13' Long - Qty 2 # TH831, which will allow you to secure your board to the pads and keep them from slipping and safe...
view full answer... - Kayak Carrier Recommendation for Thule Xspsorter Ladder RackThe crossbars on the Thule Xsporter ladder racks are too large for the hardware that comes with the Malone MegaWing Sit-On-Top Kayak Carrier # MPG207. What you could possibly do is use the Hull-Port, # TH834 with the adapter # THXADAPT3, on your Xsporter. This carrier accepts a kayak up to 36 inches wide and 75 pounds. Another option is to use Thule Surf Pads # TH845000 with box and stern tie downs # TH855XT.
view full answer... - Surfboard Carrying Suggestions for 2014 Jeep Grand CherokeeThe roof racks that will fit your vehicle will depend on the roof of your Grand Cherokee. If your roof has the flush-mounted rails with chrome strips that run along the edges of the roof, I'd recommend a Vortex Aero Crossbar rack from Rhino Rack, which consists of the following parts: Vortex Aero Crossbar in Black, part # RRVA126B-2 or in Silver, part # RRVA126S-2 Leg Kit, part # RRRCL4 Fit Kit, part # RRRCP27-BK You could use the Rhino Rack Surfboard carrier, part # RRRWP03. If there...
view full answer... - Fit of Thule T-Rac Pro2 Truck bed Ladder Rack on 2012 Tacoma Doublecab ShortbedAccording to our friends at Thule, the T-rack Pro2 Truck Bed Ladder Rack, # TH37004XT, will fit all models of the 2012 Toyota Tacoma, regardless of bed size. It comes with 4 heavy-duty load stops that can hold your SUPs from moving side to side, but I also recommend adding some pads like the Thule Surf Pad, # TH845000, and straps like part # TH531.
view full answer... - TracRac Ladder Rack Recommendation for 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 with Kayak CarrierFor your 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 the TracRac Ladder Rack part # TH27000XTB is a confirmed fit and will work well. The TracRac ladder rack crossbars are too large for kayak carriers but I have a solution for you. You can use the Thule Surf Pads # TH845000 to protect the hull of the kayak. These pads will fit the old Thule Xsporter bars which are similar in shape and size to the TracRac bars. You would then just need bow and stern tie downs to secure the kayak to the TracRac bars, # TH855XT.
view full answer... - Replacement Kayak Carrier for First Generation Thule Hull-A-Port with Damaged BaseI checked with Thule and like you said they have all of the replacement parts essentially for the first generation Hullaport that you have except what you mentioned. This is most likely due to age at this point as after a number of years they start cutting back on the replacement parts they offer for the rack and their typical philosophy for base replacement parts on their bike racks is that if the base/main shank of the rack has been damaged the rest of the rack/carrier is compromised...
view full answer... - What Surfboard Pads fit My Thule TracRac TracONE Crossbars? Yes! The only surfboard pads we have for your TracONE ladder rack with 4" x 1-1/2" crossbars is the Thule SUP and Surfboard Pads # TH845000. The strechable material allows the pads to expand to fit the bars. I went ahead and attached a picture of a neighbor review who used the pads on his TracONE ladder rack with the same crossbars dimensions. If you need straps/ties to secure your surfboard, that is the Thule Quick Draw Tie-Down Ropes w/ Ratchets and Strap Loops - 13' - Qty 2 # TH855XT.

- Which Thule Surf Pads Will Fit the Factory Roof Rack Crossbars on a 2015 Subaru OutbackI checked with Thule and the recommended crossbar pads for the factory crossbars on your 2015 Subaru Outback are the 20 inch models, # TH845000. I have linked a video review for you.
view full answer... - Rack Options For Carrying A Paddleboard And KayakIf you have crossbars on your vehicle we may be able to come up with a solution for you to be able to carry a kayak and a paddleboard at the same time. You will need to determine if you have enough room to hold both items. I recommend the Thule SUP Shuttle Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier, part # TH811XT. It has a telescoping design that will allow paddle boards up to 34 inches wide. This carrier fits round, square, aero, elliptical and most factory crossbars, and can hold up to 2 paddleboards....
view full answer... - Recommended Kayak Carrier for TracRac CrossbarsI do have a solution for you, however the kayak saddles you mentioned are no longer available from the manufacturer. Because of the larger size of the TracRac crossbars, we have found that the best solution for transporting kayaks is with the Thule Surf Pad # TH845000. These will wrap around the bars to protect the kayaks during transport. You can then just add a set of Tie-Downs # TH855XT to secure everything into place. I have attached a couple short video demonstrations on this system...
view full answer... - Recommended Kayak Carrier to Use on Thule Xsporter Truck RackTo transport your 120 Wildreness Pungo Kayak with your Thule Xsporter Truck Rack, I recommend looking at the Thule Surf Pad - Crossbar Pad # TH845000. These pads are compatible with the Xsporter crossbars and will work well for hauling your kayak. The pads feature a split-bottom design that will wrap around the bars on your system, and elastic cords at the ends will cinch the pad into place. I have attached a video demonstration of this system so you can see exactly how it works. You...
view full answer... - Recommended Kayak Carrier for 4 Inch Wide Crossbars on 2003 Hummer H2Most standard kayak carriers, such as the Yakima JayLow Kayak Carrier # Y04073, are designed to mount onto crossbars that are up to 3-1/2 inches wide. There is not a bolt-mounting carrier available that will fit the wider 4 inch bars you have on your 2003 Hummer H2. For this reason, I recommend looking at the Thule Surf Pad # TH845000 along with the Quick Draw Tie-Down Ropes # TH531. These pads will wrap around the 4 inch wide crossbars on your vehicle to provide a soft resting point...
view full answer... - Recommended TracRac Ladder System On 2008 Toyota Tacoma For Two 10 Foot KayaksFor your 2008 Toyota Tacoma, the system you are referring to and that I recommend is the T-Rac Pro2 Ladder Rack for 2005 to 2015 Toyota Tacoma - Over-the-Cab Extension - 1,000 lbs # TH37004XT-EX. This is a confirmed fit for your vehicle and has a max load capacity of 1000 lbs. It has a crossbar length of 65 inches, so you will have no problem carrying two 10 foot kayaks on this rack. This system comes with 4 heavy-duty load stops, but for further security you can use the Tie-Down Loops...
view full answer... - Recommended TracRack System For 2017 Toyota Tundra To Carry 12 Foot Aluminum BoatI have no hesitations with you using a TracRac System with a 12 foot aluminum boat weighing around 250 lbs. The TracRac G2 has been discontinued and replaced with the SR (Sliding Rack) the only change is in name. If you have a 6-1/2 foot bed, I recommend the # TH43002XT-610EX. If you have an 8 foot bed, I recommend the # TH43002XT-011 or the # TH43003XT-510 with over the cab extention. Each rack comes with 4 load stops, but if you want more tie down points I recommend the Tie-Down...
view full answer... - Ladder Rack Needed to Carry a Canoe with a 2013 Ram 1500 with BAKFlip G2 Tonneau CoverSince the BAKFlip G2 Hard Tonneau Cover, part # BAK26207 or # BAK26203 , mounts inside the bed rails of your 2013 Ram 1500 you definitely can install the TracRac SR! This is one of the best ladder racks out there and will do a great job for hauling your canoe as well as other equipment you may need. As long as your Ram doesn't have the RamBox then you can use part # TH43003XT-784 for a 5-1/2' bed or part # TH43003XT-501 for a 6-1/2' bed. If you are wanting the over-the-cab extension then...
view full answer... - What Crossbar Pads Will Work With the TracRac Ladder Rack CrossbarsI do have a crossbar pad that will work with the the TracRack crossbars but the Malone SUP 30 Rack Pad Kit will not as the crossbars themselves are wider than the actual pad. For a set of crossbar pads that will work with the TracRack crossbars I recommend using the Thule Surf Pad part # TH845000. You will also want to use the Thule Express Surf Strap part # TH531 to secure the cargo onto the pads.
view full answer... - Will The TracRac TracONE Truck Bed Ladder Rack Fit A 2015 Chevrolet Colorado With Kayak Mounts?Yes, the TracRac TracONE Truck Bed Ladder Rack - Fixed Mount - 800 lbs - Matte Black # TH27000XTB, is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Chevrolet Colorado with 6 foot bed. I reached out to my contact at Thule who makes the TracRac system and they don't have a specific Kayak Carrier that fits. However, they said that their Thule Surf Pad # TH845000, is what they recommend for transporting Kayaks on that TracOne system. You may also be interested in tie downs like the Yakima Bow/Stern Tie-Down...
view full answer... - Recommended Rack System For Carrying Kayaks With a 2022 Jeep GladiatorI recommend the Thule Xsporter Pro Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TH500XTB for your 2022 Jeep Gladiator. This rack is height adjustable allowing you to position the kayaks just above your roof line. The rack uses aero designed bars that prevent whistling by directing the air above and below the bars. The Thule SUP and Surfboard Pads # TH845000 will help protect the kayaks while on the rack. And the Thule Load Strap Cinch Straps # TH521 use a cam buckle strap that helps prevent overtightening...
view full answer... - Carrying Bikes And A Surfboard Options For 2010 Honda Fit Sport ModelThe first thing you will want to do is check your owners manual or with your dealership to find out what the roof weight capacity is for your 2010 Honda Fit. When considering carrying anything on the roof of your vehicle, you need to add the weight of the cargo you are planning on carrying along with the weight of the cargo carrier. I recommend the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack for Naked Roofs - Vortex Aero Crossbars - Aluminum - Black Item # RR83RR. For a surfboard carrier I recommend...
view full answer... - How Long is the Top Part of the Thule SUP and Surfboard PadsThe top part of the Thule SUP and Surfboard Pads for AeroCrossbars # TH845000 that sits on the topside of the crossbars is 20" long. We also have the Thule SUP and Surfboard Pads for AeroCrossbars # TH846000 which are 30" long.
view full answer... - Are J-Style Kayak Carriers Compatible With The TracRac RacOne System?I do have a solution for you, however I spoke with my contact at Thule (who manufactures the TracRac systems) and he stated that J-Style Kayak carriers are not compatible with the TracOne Truck Bed Ladder Rack # TA27000B that you referenced in your question. This is because the crossbars on the ladder rack are simply too wide for the J-Style carriers to mount properly. I instead recommend looking at the Thule Surf Pad # TH845000 to protect and support your kayaks on the ladder rack. This...
view full answer... - Will a Paddleboard Fit a Rhino-Rack Roof Rack on a 2015 Jeep Wrangler with a Hard TopRhino-Rack SG Roof Rack # RRSG60 for rain gutters has a capacity of 88 pounds so provided that your 11 foot paddleboard is under 88 pounds then it can support the board. However, this roof rack has a narrow bar spread of 19 inches from the center of one bar to the center of the other bar meaning you would need to make certain that the board is tied down at the bow and stern and placed so that the weight is evenly distributed to both bars. Also since the crossbars are basically positioned...
view full answer... - Kayak Carrier for TracRac TracOne Ladder RacksBecause of the size of the TracRac ladder rack crossbars the Yakima Kayak Carrier with Tie-Downs - Saddle Style with Rollers - Clamp On Item # Y04083-04082 will not fit properly. Pretty much the only option is to use Thule Surf Pad # TH845000. You will also want some tie-downs to secure the bow and stern of the kayak. I recommend Thule Quick Draw Tie-Down Ropes w/ Ratchets and Strap Loops - 13' - Qty 2 - # TH855XT.
