The Rhino-Rack 573 Ski and Snowboard Carrier is the perfect solution for securely transporting your snow gear to and from the mountain. Keep the interior of your vehicle dry and clutter free simply by placing your skis or snowboard in the roof mounted Rhino-Rack 573 snow accessory. Fits 3 pairs of skis or 2 snowboards (back to back) into the carrier, snap it shut, lock it for protection and you're on the road. The release mechanism allows you to open and close the Ski and Snowboard Carrier with gloved hands which saves you time fumbling with unruly tie downs and gets you into the car quicker.
