I don't ski or snowboard, but I surf, and I use Thule roof racks. They are very well made and secure, I carry big heavy traditional longboards on mine and they haven't failed me yet..... Thule also makes attachments just for snow skies and snowboards.... |

Yakima Powderhound for 2 boards or the Big Powder hound for 4 boards. But if you don't want them exposed to the elements, get a rooftop box. Might kill your gas mileage a little bit though. Ive got the powderhound for over 6 years and still work fine. You can buy a same lock key system to secure the boards too. |

I went with the Mopar brand cross rails and Mopar Ski Rack. They hold up pretty well with four boards and 80mph, lol. I chose that set up because I found an amazing deal on eBay. Three years, still going strong. |

Thule Snowcat 5401. It is the cheapest option, and does not require you to buy horizontal bars. If you are just needing a ski/snowboard rack and not going to need to put a kayak/boat or bikes up top I would reccomend the Snowcat. I have it, and love it. It fits 4 pairs of skis, or 4 snowboards or 2 of each. |
