Rooftop Carriers for SUP and Skis  

Question:

Hi, will this carrier also work with things like skis, in addition to paddleboards? Looking for something more universal than just a paddleboard carrier.

Yakima's SUPDawg Stand-Up Paddleboard Carrier # Y04075 does resemble a rooftop ski carrier but it is designed specifically for use with SUPs which can be 4 to 5-inches thick, a good bit thicker than many skis are when stacked together. Ski carriers like the Rhino-Rack # RR576 can be used with skis or with snowboards (or even fishing poles) but they will not be able to fit a much thicker item like a SUP.

What might work for you is a cost-effective combination of a ski carrier, such as the Rhino-Rack item noted above or one of the other similar carriers shown on the linked page, along with a simple crossbar pad type carrier such as # RRRWP05.

You can refer to the linked articles covering watersport carriers and ski carriers for details on the types of items available and how to figure your best option for a given budget.
