Yakima ski racks, cutting edge

Winter means snow in the mountains; and as any skiing enthusiast will tell you, that means it’s time to hit the slopes. The call of the mountains is nearly irresistible to anyone that enjoys skiing or snowboarding, and any chance to spend the day at a favorite resort is readily taken. However, packing all of your gear into your car for the trip can leave very little space for any passengers.

Yakima has been a leader in the car rack industry for over a quarter century. Their reputation for quality craftsmanship, cutting edge technology, and durable construction is unparalleled, which has made them one of the premiere suppliers of racks for transporting all sorts of outdoor equipment. From bicycles, to skis, to kayaks, Yakima has a rack for any and all requirements.

Yakima ski racks are available in two basic varieties; those that mount on the roof, and those that mount on the rear of the vehicle. Roof-mounted models are arguably the most popular design, as they can be easily attached to nearly any vehicle rooftop. Most of these designs are of the open-air style, meaning that the skis and/or snowboards are exposed to the elements while being transported. This type of rack is extremely popular because they are relatively inexpensive, and because every model is available with a locking mechanism, your ski equipment will be safe and secure until you reach the mountain.

If you’re going to be driving for hours to get to the closest ski resort, or just want a weatherproof way to transport your skis or snowboard, they also make a fully enclosed, roof-mounted ski rack. These racks are the ideal way to keep your equipment out of the elements. They are also designed to be as aerodynamic as possible, which not only reduces wind resistance, but can also help save you a little money on gas.

For those that prefer a rear-mounted ski rack, Yakima offers a rack designed to easily attach to a standard trailer hitch. These racks are ideal for those that own a pick-up, SUV or another vehicle that either can’t be fitted with a roof rack, or is too tall to reach a roof rack. It is capable of holding up to six pairs of skis, or four snowboards, each of which can be locked in place. However, these racks do limit the amount of access you might have to the rear of your vehicle.
