I have an inflatable kayak, what I usually did is to inflate it when I am at the beach then delate it when I want to get back to car. With this roof racks, I can get everything ready when I am home and doing the deflation when I am back. Which give me much better access to my electric inflator. I am using this pads with my SUV, it can hold my inflatable kayak very well, I am not too worried about lose my kayak during my trip to the beach

These roof pads are easy to use and install - basically just a few hook and loop closure straps that you wrap around the roof of the vehicle. The padding is firm and provides enough cushioning to support and protect both your vehicle and the item you're transporting. Use it for Standup Paddle Boards, but can honestly be used for anything while protecting the top of your vehicle. This is great for short hops, recommend picking up a pair.

These soft racks are super easy to use! I cant imagine anyone having difficulty in using these. The straps can be pulled tight and the clamps are simple to release. They are much easier to use than ratchet straps. Anyone can use it! This is perfect for when I want to throw a single kayak on the car and hit the lake rather than transporting with my truck. The materials are fantastic and the stitching is excellent. The pads grip the roof without Any scratches. The clamps are very sturdy and are easy to operate. It is wise to wet the straps, stretch taut and leave to dry before going on a long trip. This will take any stretch out and keep the load tight. I do this with all of my assorted straps and tie-downs. Super easy!

These are easy to use, and you can put the straps through different loops to make the straps as tight as you need to. I used these to secure an 8 ft surfboard to the top of my car and felt safe driving through a windy city. They are a little pricey for two foam pieces, but they did their job so I'm glad I have them now.

Needed some car racks. These work great. Good quality and easy to put on the car roof.
