Racks & Storage FAQs
How do I load a kayak on a roof rack?
How you load your boat or kayak onto your roof rack will depend on the type you have. However, here are some tips for loading your kayak onto a J-rack:
- Have the kayak lying on the ground with the cockpit facing outwards.
- Bending your knees, grab the front and back of the cockpit with both hands.
- Lift the kayak onto your thighs using a sliding motion.
- Support the kayak by lifting one of your knees and bring it over your head.
- Now smoothly put the kayak on top of the roof rack and secure it.
What's the best roof rack for my kayak or canoe?
Investing in a quality roof rack loader is crucial when you're hauling heavy and bulky cargo. There are various types such as base racks, rollers and stackers, but it depends on what you're transporting, the roof's weight capacity and what suits your vehicle. J-cradle (also known as j-rack) designs are great for transporting kayaks and canoes on an angle and reducing stress on their hull.
How do I secure a J-cradle roof rack?
To secure your kayak, you'll need a quality tie-down strap like our Sea to Summit Heavy Duty Tie Down. Simply loop the straps around the top part of the j-cradles, centring the kayak in the process. Throw both strap ends over the kayak and then strap around the rack crossbar. Repeat this step with the rear strap and then tighten them both.
