What Solution is Best for Transporting Snowboards with Bindings on a 2021 Tesla Model Y?

Question:

I want to get this for my 2021 Tesla Model Y. The specs of this box say that it can fit 4 snowboards or 6 Skis, but all the pictures I could find were of snowboards without the bindings attached to them. Can this box fit 4 snowboards with the bindings attached? Thanks.

When it comes to fitting snowboards with bindings into the Inno Wedge 660 # INBRM660BK, there is no way to confirm for sure that 4 snowboards will be able to fit since we do not know the exact measurements of your boards' bindings. However, a single board laid flat will fit as long as the total height of snowboard (from the bottom of the board to the top of the bindings) are less than 8-1/2 inches tall. Depending on the material of the bindings, they can be folded or adjusted in order to decrease the total height. Also, you will have 72" long x 25-5/8" wide of interior space to adjust the boards so that one pair of bindings for one board can stack upside down on another board (one board lays right-side-up on the bottom of the box while the other board is upside-down on top of it).

In order to mount the Inno Wedge 660 to your roof, you will need a crossbar system. The only confirmed fit we have for your 2021 Tesla Model Y is the Seasucker Monkey Bars # 298-SX6000B. One great thing about the Monkey Bars is that it works with naked roofs and panoramic roofs alike. The Monkey Bars will be able to accommodate the Inno Wedge 660 and has a maximum weight capacity of 150 pounds. I recommend confirming with your owner's manual to make sure your roof can hold that much weight.

For a creative option that will allow you to mount your 4 snowboards with bindings attached, I recommend 2 pairs of the SeaSucker Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Vacuum Cup Mounted # 298-SK2425. Depending on the amount of space on your regular/panoramic roof, you may have to adjust these carriers horizontally on your roof with your boards attached. However, depending on the length of your snowboards, I recommend measuring the length of your boards and compare it to the length between your mirrors. Traveling with anything that extends past the mirrors can result in dangerous scenarios (and may be even be illegal in some states).

If you need extra security for any of the SeaSucker products, I recommend the SeaSucker Cable Anchor for Cable Lock - Window Mounted # 298-BA0010 along with the etrailer cable lock # e98891.
