The Yakima ShowDown is the first premium load-assist mount engineered to handle both heavy kayaks and SUPs with ease. If you’re tired of the "overhead heave," this system is your s olution. The lightweight rack tilts down more than two feet from your vehicle’s roof rack, meeting you at a manageable height to make loading and unloading a breeze. Don't let the sleek profile fool you. While the mount weighs only ~21 lbs, it is built burly enough to wrangle an 80 lb load. By taking on up to 45% of the boat's weight, the ShowDown helps you gently glide your gear to the top of your vehicle. Once in place, the integrated cradles securely "hug" your kayak or boards for a stable, wobble-free ride to the water. Show more
