Yakima Big PowderHound Snow Roof Rack

Yakima Big PowderHound Snow Roof Rack description

Instead of trying to cram your boards diagonally across your car's interior, load them on top with the Yakima Big PowderHound Snow Roof Rack. The Big PowderHound holds six pairs of skis or four snowboards.

Bottom Line: Load several ski pairs and boards onto your car's roof with the Yakima Big PowderHound.

Have had the Big PowderHound for over 2 years now and have used the rack during the last 2 winters. The rack is pretty basic, but it's worked great up to this point. My rack is attached to the factory crossbars on my 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee w/ Mighty Mounts. The only gripe I have w/ the Big PowderHound is that I can't carry snowboards bindings-down because there isn't enough clearance between roof and the rack, but I doubt that most other cars/SUVs would have the same problem. This hasn't really been a big issue for me though, because I'm normally only carrying 2 snowboards on the rack. Overall, I'd say this rack is pretty solid and well made.

Very straight forward install. Yakima's one key system lets you unlock/lock both arms with one key. You can hold up to 4 snowboards securely. Highly recommended.

Have used both the Yakima and Thule racks and these work great!
