The first load-assist mount to handle both SUPs and kayaks, makes loading and unloading heavy boats and boards a breeze. The lightweight mount tilts down more than two feet from the roof rack, takes on up to 45% of the boat’s weight, then helps gently raise it up to the top of the vehicle. Because your craft is tied in before it is lifted it can’t catch in the wind and twist or slip protecting your back and your car. Once loaded it securely cradles your boat or boards for the ride. At only 9.5 kg it’s super lightweight but built burly enough to wrangle a 36 kg load.
Tool free quick and easy install and removal from your car’s roof means you don’t have to leave it on all the time allowing you to use your roof rack for other things when you are not off kayaking/
