Great video! I wanted to make sure we could fit two kayaks on our roof rack before buying them. This was very helpful. Thank you!
Glad it helps - loading 2 kayaks is a boon for us. Trish
Love the way you lift your kayak on your shoulder
The two kayak technique worked great for us. Thank you.
Glad we could help Juliette :)
Thank you! Extremely helpful
Glad this helped you out
Good evening, I have 2 kayaks and I'm having trouble transporting them. what material is that you put on top of the bars? wood?? and what have you put on top of this, any rubber?? thank you very much.👏👏👏
Thanks for the video! You make it look so easy!
Hope you find it easy too :)
@@trishtreagus Yeah wasn’t bad. I had made some longer crossbars out of some wood because I used the factory crossbars with the kayak J brackets and it’s on top of a Toyota sienna van, so it would be very hard to do the straps because it kept falling down off the top of the J hooks and it’s up high. I guess I could’ve attach them there somehow, but I like the straps to be able to move around some. Plus if I mount the kayaks flat, I t’s a little bit easier to get to things and load them. Much easier to toss the straps over the kayaks when they’re flat. Thanks!
@@phw340 Good to hear of your solution. Cheers Trish
You are very strong 💪!

Where did you get the roof rack extension from??
Hi Brad, we have made these rack extensions using decking timber and rubber matting. Decking Timber lengths 1600mm x 90mm x 19mm. Alternatively we can sell you a pair. Cheers Trish
I also would like to have directions on how to make the rack extensions.
Hi Barb, sorry for the delay in replying to you. Can you please call Colin on 0413 794 371 for information about the extensions. Thanks Colin
I really like the straps you used to secure the kayaks down on the videos, what is the name of the manufacture of the straps and where can I get some? I have two kayaks to strap down on the top of the van. Thanks
Hi, I would also like to know where to buy straps and kayak extenders. I'm in the US
I got some from supercheap, sea to summit, really good with silicone cam covers
The sinch straps seemed easy to use but made me nervous without having a ratcheting locking mechanism.
@@shaew837 yes, I always use ratchets and it’s cheap too
Where do you get the roof rack extension

Where can you get those rack extensions pieces shown in the video?
Hi bmx_snowboard, sorry for the delay in replying to you. Can you please call Colin on 0413 794 371 for information about the extensions. Thanks Colin
Home Depot.
Do you have the website link for these extension at Home Depot?! I can’t find anything on website...
Would be nice if you could explain. Thanks
Hi Mfreih 😊 This video was a demonstration for a product that Colin made at the request of a few local customers (discontinued).
He has built a rack extension, which sits on top of the roof racks to allow for the transport of two kayaks at a time. They are padded to avoid damage to the kayaks in transit and they have a few pieces underneath to allow it to sit more securely on top of the roof racks. Colin uses four sets of cable ties to secure the kayaks to the roof racks. The cable ties are fed under the roof rack at the centre, hook over the kayaks and are secured under the roof rack on the other side. He secures one kayak at first and then repeats on the other side, and at the end double checks that both kayaks are secure and won't move around while driving. If you want more detail about how you can do this, shoot an email over to info@kayakcentralcoast.com.au and I'm sure Trish or Colin will get back to you as soon as they can!
Why does he make this look so easy
It’s the music
He has years of experience!
If the intent is to SHOW how to secure kayaks to a roof rack, then this video fails. If the intent is to win in a kayak securing competition for the fastest, time then well you won.
I think the intent is to sell those rack extensions!
