I have owned these straps for over 5 years for dawn patrol surf trips ranging from a 5 minute drive to over 60 minutes on the freeway.This works on any car and can carry multiple 9' longboards side by side.The straps are probably the most misunderstood part of this rack.The straps have a locking D ring which can slip unless you follow the manufacturers directions.Basically, you have to cinch the straps tight (I lean back and use body weight while I stand outside the car). The critical part that most people don't understand is that you then need to loop the strap back into the D ring hole and tie off the end.When done properly, it is more secure than any other soft rack, even the ones with the metal clamps.BOTTOM LINE: Tie off the ends of the strap in the D ring and this rack is great!

I admit I bought one of these because it came in a good bag. But that was it. First, it took me more than a half hour just to figure out how to tie the straps. The D-rings connectors and instructions were a little confusing. When I finally tightened it on my car and put my boards in it, it just never really tightened down. There's a long bumpy road to my break...and the straps over the boards kept getting loose from the road vibration. Also, the front rack lifted in the wind and the back rack dented the roof of my car. I ended up tossing the rack in the back of my garage...but the bag it came in is great for keeping wax and other stuff.

This might be my best purchase of the year! It's absolutely perfect and I love it!!About the straps slipping: Please, PLEASE go through the manual and LEARN how to "tie the knot" so to speak. There is a very specific way in which the straps need to go through the rings in order for them to be secured. IF you do it right, it's both SUPER secure AND easy to take it apart once you stop driving. BUT if you DON'T read the manual and DON'T learn the proper way to tie the straps on the rings, then they will most definitely slip. Read the manual, practice a couple of times, then enjoy for life =)Do take it off the roof of your car if you want this or any soft rack to last, as weather and other factors like bird crap can damage your rack over time.This is an amazing rack. Search no more. Just read the instructions and ENJOY!! =D SURF ON!!!!
