Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier

Whether you are hauling 3 pairs of skis, 2 snowboards, or a family-size load of fishing poles, this carrier ensures that you will arrive at your destination with all your gear intact - and you'll do it without breaking the bank.


Locking Carrier

The Rhino-Rack ski and fishing rod carrier comes with a lock on each unit, offering you peace of mind when you are hanging at the lodge after a long day on the slopes or out on the lake in your boat.


Large Push Button

The carrier operates with a large push button on the side of the unit. This design allows for easy loading and unloading of skis, a snowboard, or fishing rods, even if you're wearing fingerless mittens or big, bulky winter gloves.


Universal Mounting Hardware

The ski and fishing rod carrier mounts in the top channel of your Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero or Heavy-Duty crossbars with T-bolts. It also comes with universal clamp-on mounting hardware that lets you use the carrier on round, square, aero, elliptical, and most factory crossbars right out of the box.


A riser kit (S550 - sold separately) is available to accommodate your skis or snowboards with tall bindings. The risers mount to the spacer nuts on the bottom of your rack and attach to your crossbars with a special fit kit (WR09 - sold separately). These kits add 1-3/8 inches of additional clearance between the bottom of the carrier and your vehicle's roof. If you have Rhino-Rack Heavy-Duty crossbars, you will need to use fit kit WR02 instead of WR09.


Soft Molding

This carrier protects your gear with soft rubber molding inside the hinged arms of the carrier. The molding gently cradles your skis, snowboard, or fishing rods and won't damage paint or cause abrasions.

We bought these to go alongside a roof box and they work great, freeing up space in the roof box for all the other stuff you need for skiing. They are sturdy, don't wobble on our Thule bars, and the lock mechanism works well. They would fit 3 pair of x-country or narrow alpine skis; with wider alpine skis you only get 2 pair (there is about 300mm of room on the rack and while many skis are <100mm underfoot, they are 15-35mm wider at the widest part so you can only fit 2 pair).



by:

I can't ski, I fly fish. However my oldest decided to try downhill skiing after being gifted a pair of skis. I am budget minded should the skiing not work out and after breaking many rod tips decided this might solve 2 problem. I am very pleased w/this equipment holder. It has transported skis & ski poles too and from and no longer does my oldest have to dodge skies coming over the back seat. So far it has taken abuse from the rain (& freezing rain), snow, ice, rapid warming, road salt, and upwards of 70mph and there has been no shifting, loosening, breaking of plastic or any other noticeable problems. I am excited for spring to see how it transports my fly rods.



by:

I think these racks will be excellent during ski outings for many years. I attached them directly to the C-grooves on my Aero bars rather than using the provided clamps. The C-groove attachment is stronger and slightly lower profile. I love the large release buttons!.



by:

Clamp came almost ready to install, which was great for getting it on my rack in less than 30 minutes. It is very sturdy and holds my boards great! I was concerned my crossbars would be too thick, so the feet of the clamp's wouldn't fit around them, but they fit snug and secure.



by:

great product and speedy delivery!



by:

This ski/snowboard holder is extremely easy to install, very sturdy and looks good. I tried driving at freeway speeds and could not hear any whistling or wind noise so far. The included locks are definitely a bonus.



by:

Very happy with our new ski rack! Easy to install and very stable. Needed this smaller rack because a full size one will NOT fit a 2019 Jeep. This one is just right!



by:

So far, the rack has been working great. Shipping and assembly were no problem.



by:

Advertised as being able to hold 3 skis. 2 pair of skis yes - 3 adult skis no.

There is a certain way you have to pair the skis up for all of them to fit. There is a photo above in the description of all 3 pairs of skis.



by:

These are stable, secure, and easy to use. They work great!



by:

This has worked out great for our family to hit the ski slopes last winter and again this winter. Very easy to use, put on at beginning of winter, and remove when the slopes close for the season.



by:

Unfortunately we have to take the bindings off to stow two boards but it will create much needed space in our SUV and I trust that my boards will be secure from theft. They will be a new staple on my car for the rest of the winter and allow us to make quick and easy trips to the mountains.



by:

Best there is. Never mind spending 300+ get these for half of that and quality is just as good even better. Would highly recommend



by:

Good quality and easy to install!



by:

Great product, my daughter loves it.

Yes, my package arrived safe, and quick! It arrive in less than a week!

Easy to install and works great!

  • Recommended Cargo Box and Ski Carrier for Roof Rack with 60" Crossbar Spread
    I have some solutions for you, but I'm unaware of a cargo box that will work with a roof rack crossbar system that has a spread of 60"; the good news is that there are some ski racks and cargo baskets that you can use on this system that can help you out. For a ski rack I recommend using the Rhino Rack # RR573, which will fit on the round bars you've got and can be used at any crossbar spread. This ski/snowboard rack can carry up to 3 pairs of skis or 2 snowboards, and also doubles as...

  • Recommended Ski Carrier That Mounts In Track On Crossbars
    The good news is that the t-slot mounting channels are fairly standardized so you won't be limited to any one particular brand or carrier. If you are looking to carry ski's, the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier part # RR573 is my recommendation since it holds up to three pairs, has locks for security, and comes with both wraparound mounts/t-bolts. Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to provide any hardware for factory carriers as length and pitch both would come into play and we don't...

  • Recommended Ski/Snowboard Carrier for 2017 VW Tiguan with Raise Side Rails
    In order to carry skis/snowboards on a 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan with raised side rails you'll first need to start with crossbars, I recommend the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part # MPG215 which has aero shaped crossbars that are the most widely compatible/wind resistant and locks for security. These will then allow you to mount a number of different ski and snowboard carrier like the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier part # RR573 which is what I recommend. I have attached a full list of...

  • How Much Bar Space Is Needed To Mount And Use the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier?
    To fit the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573 you are going to need at least 14" of bar space on your crossbars. So as long as you have 14" of bar space, ,the # RR573 will work just fine and will have plenty of room to operate. Attached is a review video for you to check out as well.

  • Can Rhino Rack Ski Carrier # RR573 Attach to Rhino Rack Pioneer Platform Tray
    The # RR43159 can only be used with the Rhino Rack Ski Carrier part # RR572.The mounting brackets of the # RR573 are spaced too far apart to fit on the # RR43159. Now with that said the part # RR573 is designed to attach to t-channels on the tops of crossbars which the Pioneer Platform trays also feature so you could still attach this directly to a Pioneer Platform.

  • Can I Mount the Rightline RL100D90 Next to a Ski Carrier on My 2016 Volkswagen Tiguan?
    I have a solution for you. In order to mount the Rightline Gear Car Top Duffel Bag # RL100D90 to your vehicle with crossbars, you will have to mount the bag vertically (pointing toward the front/rear of the vehicle). and use the straps to either attach to your doors or to your rails on your vehicle. This is the setup used in the video I attached to this answer. To find out whether you have enough room to use the Rightline Gear Car Top Duffel Bag # RL100D90 with a roof-mounted ski rack,...

It is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Subaru Forester. The Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 3 Skis or 2 Boards # RR573 will work using either the clamps or the T-slot mounting hardware. The 4 Skis or 2 Boards version # RR574 will work as well. Finally, the Yakima FreshTrack 4 Ski and Snowboard Carrier - Locking - 4 Skis...

  • How Much Height Will Rhino-Rack Ski/Pole Carrier RR573 Add to a Roof Rack
    I went out to the warehouse to measure the Rhino-Rack ski/pole carrier # RR573. From the top of the unit to the base (if using the flat, square bolt for mounting) it measures 5 inches. If using the foot it will stick up above the crossbars 5-3/4 inches. I included a picture showing these measurements for you.

  • 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Ski Carrier Recommendation for Rhino-Rack Squarebar Roof Rack
    The Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbars # RRVA137B-2, 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA, and Fit Kit # DK360 are a great option for your 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. I've attached an installation video of this roof rack system on a 2013 Santa Fe so you can get a good idea about how it installs. To carry your skis we have a few different options but I recommend just sticking with the Rhino-Rack theme and choosing one of the following depending on how many pairs of skis you want to be able to carry: 2...

  • Recommended Bike and Ski Carriers for a Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack
    The Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part # MPG215 has standard size aero crossbars so most roof bike and ski carriers will work just fine. For a roof bike carrier, I recommend the Swagman Upright Roof Bike Rack part # S64720 which is a great, easy to use option. For a roof ski carrier, I recommend the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier part # RR573 which is very popular and even comes with locks.

  • Recommended Best Ski Rack for 2017 Honda Pilot with Naked Roof
    For your 2017 Honda Pilot with naked roof you will need to first add a roof rack. I recommend the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA137B-2, 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA, and Custom DK Fit Kit # DK444. I've attached a video of the similar fit on a 2018 CR-V for reference only. Then I recommend the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573. The channel mount will secure the carrier and give you a really clean look.

  • Recommended Ski Carrier for Factory Crossbars on 2013 Honda Pilot
    It sounds like your Honda-branded ski carrier uses what is commonly called a T-slot type attachment that works on crossbars such as the Rhino-Rack Vortex # RRVA137B-2 and the Inno Aero # INXB100. All of these crossbars have a similar channel for mounting T-slot type accessories. These various bars and accessories are not identical but we have found that typically a T-slot accessory product from one maker will usually work with a bar from another. We do not offer any adapter kit that will...

  • Can I Open Sunroof of Toyota Highlander with Rhino Rack Roof Rack?
    Yes you can! Since you're looking at the Rhino Rack kit with parts # RRVA137B-2, # RRRCL4, # RRRCP31-BK , I assume you have a 2019 Toyota Highlander with flush rails on your roof since this kit mounts to fixed mounting points? If you look on your roof, note where those fixed points are on your rails. Usually they are set behind the sunroof, since the aerodynamics and weight distribution works better towards the back of your roof and to avoid that sunroof. I attached a video review below...

  • What Accessory Bars Will Fit The Rhino Rack Platform On 2018 Toyota 4Runner For Carrying Snowboards?
    Yes, the Rhino-Rack Accessory Bars # RR43137B are designed to fit all the 4 plank Rhino Rack Platforms like the Rhino-Rack Pioneer Platform Rack with Backbone Mounting System # RR43AB on your 2018 Toyota 4Runner. Then you will be able to mount a Snowboard Carrier # RR576, # RR574, or # RR573 to your accessory bars. The carrier will attach directly to the bars with the t-slot channel and does not use the universal clamps.

  • Rhino Rack Ski and Snowboard Rack Compatibility with Yakima Jetstream T-Slots
    The Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573 will fit the top channel of most aero crossbars including the Yakima Jetstream. They will also fit very well over the bars so if you want to use the carrier on other aero bars, you will have that option as well. Let me know if you have further questions.

  • Ski Carrier Recommendation for 2018 Chrysler Pacifica to Carry 6 Pairs of Skis
    The overall length of the Rhino Rack Ski Carrier part # RR573 that you referenced is 18-1/2 inches so to fit two of these you'd need bars that right at 36 inches in length. Another option that would work really well is the Kuat Grip Ski Carrier part # GRR6P which can carry up to 6 pairs of skis. The inner tray of the carrier slides out so that you can have access to the far side of the rack without having to climb all the way onto the roof. Check out the review video I attached for more...

  • Roof Mount Ski Carrier that Will Fit Rhino-Rack Crossbar T-Slot
    The Thule SnowPack ski carrier # TH7326 will fit the Rhino-Rack Vortex crossbars but it is not designed or tested to work in the T-slot. The feet clamp around the bars using the Speed-Link rubber-coated metal strap. Another option that will mount in the slot is the Rhino-Rack ski carrier # RR573.

    I reached out to Yakima and they said that your Yakima SkyBox 18 Rooftop Cargo Box # Y07336 should fit the OEM bars you have on your 2017 Volvo XC90. The clamps should adjust location to fit your bars. The clamps do not need to fully enclose the bar but it does need to clamp and hold tight. They specify the maximum aero bar dimensions it will fit is 3-1/2 inches by 1-11/16 inches and it will fit a crossbar spread between 24 and 42 inches center to center. There is not a conversion to...

    The Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573 will fit crossbars up to 3-1/2 inches wide. It will fit your 2022 Volkswagen Taos so long as you have a roof rack system with crossbars up to that width; if you just have the raised side rails and no roof rack with crossbars you will need to add a rack with the Rhino-Rack Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 and Rhino-Rack SX Series Legs # RRSX022.

  • Compatable Rhino Rack Ski Rack for Subaru Aero Crossbars
    I went out to the warehouse to measure the clamps on Rhino Rack Ski Rack # RR573 and found that it was approximately 4" from center-to-center of the screw holes, with the screws themselves being 1-1/2". The clamps are roughly 1/4" thick, so the bars on your Subaru Impreza will need to be less than an inch high. They will also need to be roughly no more than 3-3/4" wide. I've added a link to a video review of this rack, as well as a link to each of our Rhino Rack Ski Racks.

  • Will Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier Fit Exposed Racks Crossbars on Jeep Wrangler
    The Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR573 will fit your Exposed Racks Roof Rack crossbars. The reason the # HD-FK1 adapter is required for the square Rhino-Rack bars like # RB1375B-2 is because of their 1-7/8" height. The Exposed Racks crossbars are only 1-1/4" x 1-1/4" so you won't have a problem installing the ski/snowboard carrier.
