I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

AA-Racks Kayak Roof Rack: Double Folding for Car

Description

AA-Racks Double Folding Kayak Roof Rack for Car

The AA-Racks Double Folding Kayak Roof Rack for Car is a versatile and convenient solution for transporting your kayaks and other outdoor gear. With its double folding design, each J-hook on the kayak roof rack can be folded flat to allow your car to fit in parking garages and occupy the least space. This feature makes it perfect for urban environments where space is limited.

Constructed of heavy-duty powder-coated tubular steel, the kayak carriers are sturdy and durable. The extra-thick foam padding covers the full range of each J-bar, ensuring the protection and safety of your kayaks during transportation. The rubber bracket base and reinforced hardware add even more security on the road, giving you peace of mind to enjoy your water sports or kayak fishing.

The AA-Racks kayak rack offers universal mounting capabilities, thanks to its 180° folding adjustment motion and reinforced bracket base. It comes with a full set of mounting hardware to make installation easy and hassle-free. The kayak rack can fit most types of crossbars, including square, trapezoidal, and oval-shaped crossbars. However, note that round-shaped crossbars are not compatible. It is also important to ensure that the crossbars are at least 1.8 feet from the height of the roof to have enough installation clearance.

For extra security, the kayak rack includes heavy-duty securing ratchet straps. These straps have been tested with a 16-foot length and a break strength of 2200 lbs, ensuring a secure transportation experience for your kayak or canoe. The package includes two packs of ratchet straps, suitable for one pair of kayak racks.

Installing the AA-Racks kayak rack is a straightforward process. It can be easily installed on Vault Cargo roof rack rails. Simply strap the kayak to the roof racks using tie-down straps and secure the bow and stern to the front and rear of the car for extra safety. Following the provided manual makes the installation and usage of the kayak rack effortless. Moreover, the company provides local customer service for any support you may need.
